In his will, dating from 1490, the nobleman Francesco Scottivoli from Ancona ordered his heirs to erect a chapel in his memory at the church of San Francesco delle Scale, and have it adorned with a painted altarpiece, executed in 1508 by a painter of Greek origin residing in Ancona. In the late 18th-century a full-scale renovation of the church resulted to the dissolution of the Scottivoli chapel and the removal of the painted altarpiece, which was subsequently lost and has been considered missing ever since. This article aims to identify the long-missing Scottivoli altarpiece and determine the identity of its creator based on the re-evaluation of previously published sources and the discovery of unpublished archival and visual material. In light of this new information, this study interprets the Scottivoli altarpiece within the context of the intense cross-cultural transfer that took place in the multicultural contact zone of the early modern Eastern Mediterranean and Adriatic Seas.

一个“丢失”的面板和一个缺失的环节：Angelos Bitzamanos 和安科纳 San Francesco delle Scale 教堂的 Scottivoli 祭坛画案例

在 1490 年的遗嘱中，来自安科纳的贵族 Francesco Scottivoli 命令他的继承人在 San Francesco delle Scale 教堂建造一座小教堂以纪念他，并在其上装饰一幅彩绘祭坛，由一位希腊画家于 1508 年完成原籍安科纳。在 18 世纪后期，教堂的全面翻修导致斯科蒂沃利教堂的解散和彩绘祭坛画的拆除，该画坛画随后丢失并一直被认为是失踪的。本文旨在根据对先前已发表资料的重新评估以及未发表的档案和视觉材料的发现，确定长期失踪的 Scottivoli 祭坛画并确定其创作者的身份。鉴于这些新信息，
