Good Thief
note: Originally attributed to Bernardino Campi; Davidson (1968) proposes that this was perhaps part of a study for the dead Christ to appear in Perino's Deposition for Santa Maria Sopra Minerva (destroyed by flood in 1530 and surviving in fragments like The Good Thief and The Bad Thief); she also notes Michelangesque elements (p. 16).
