The Mourning Virgin with St. John and the Pious Women from Galilee. This panel is the right wing of the Lachovsky-Bardi Diptych. The left wing, showing a Deposition, was formerly housed in the Sickles collection, Paris. There are several copies of both panels (Groeningenmuseum, Bruges; Bargello Museum, Florence, etc.), including one at the Münch's Alte Pinakothek, which Friedländer once thought to be the original (1928), before he knew the panel currently housed in São Paulo. The composition is quite similar to that of Memling's Granada Diptych and both works are freely inspired by a lost prototype by Hugo van der Goes, known through several old copies. Opinions vary about the attribution and dating of the painting. Friedländer (1937, 1939, 1950), Bardi (1956), Carvalho de Magalhães (1995) and Luiz Marques (1998) have ascribed the artwork, with more or less reservations, to Memling, but De Vos (1994) believes the painting to be a workshop product, as well as the Granada version. In the opinion of Carvalho de Magalhães, the Lamentation of the Museu de Arte de São Paulo is of superior quality than the one in Granada. As what comes to date, Friedländer believes that both the Granada and the São Paulo panels must date from the same period (c. 1485). De Vos believes the São Paulo version to be older (c. 1475). Baldass and Camesasca are favorable to a later date.
