Theological interpretation of early Christian rituals in Northern Italy in the era of the Catholic reform and Lutheranism caused a deep reconsideration of the Feetwashing ritual, consciously re-orienting it toward a reflection of the Eucharistic sacrament within orthodoxy. this phenomenon had backlashes on the Catholic evangelising mission in areas disputed between the confessions, such as Northern Italy, especially the border regions of Lombardy and the Venetian republic. Many iconographies with the subject of the Feetwashing, in the context of Christological narratives, found an expression in the works by the Capuchin preachers and the members of the Canons regular of the Lateran order: first, the successful writer Pietro bernardini da Lucca (†1522). Similarly, also Serafino Aceti de’ Porti was a great mediator of the heritage of Northern mystics such as Johann J. Landsberger’s (†1539) Pharetra divini amoris. On the basis of these theological reflections some great Northern Italian artists (Gaudenzio Ferrari, romanino, Moretto, tintoretto and bassano) elaborated original iconographic solutions on the theme of Feetwashing, which also had repercussions in Imperial Spain.
