RT info:eu-repo/semantics/article T1 Tra forma e contenuto: un’idea per il sepolcro del giovane Bonifacio a Napoli A1 Gaeta, Letizia A2 Ediciones Universidad de Valladolid K1 Arte AB The present essay provides a new iconografical interpretation, linked to the formal features of the whole composition, to Andrea Bonifacio’s tomb attributed to Ordóñez. This marble work is involved in a cultural and figurative context that recalls, also through Botticellian images, Ficino’s Neo-Platonic philosophy deeply known by the poet Sannazzaro, artistic consultant of the noble neapolitan family and also author of the inscription on the tomb. The main theme could be Beauty in its contemplative meaning as expression of spiritual values.This interpretation is corroborated by the presence in the representation of some philosophers and a saturnian figure close to Dürer’s Melancholia.
