The Santa Croce Crucifix is a c.1406-1408 polychrome wood sculpture by Donatello, then a young artist just back from Rome. It is in the Cappella Bardi di Vernio just off the left transept of Santa Croce in Florence, Italy.
According to the Book of Antonio Billi , quoted and added to in Vasari's Lives of the Artists, the work was originally in the church's cappella Barbigia. There it was criticised by Donatello's friend Filippo Brunelleschi as showing a "contadino" on a cross, that is for its exaggerated realism. This spurred Brunelleschi to produce for Santa Maria Novella in c.1410-1415 his own crucifix - Donatello's first sight of that work made him drop the eggs he was carrying.
