It was produced for the high altar of the Capuchin church in Parma as one of the artist's first works outside Bologna. The commission may have been linked to the Farnese family, which had a fundamental role in the artist's future career. The family had backed the Capuchins establishing friaries in Parma and Piacenza and in the 1570s duke Ottavio Farnese assigned them the now-destroyed churches Santa Maria Maddalena in Parma and San Bernardino in Piacenza, having financed the rebuilding of both.[2]

It was praised in all the historic sources on Annibale, such as Francesco Scannelli's Il microcosmo della pittura (1657), Carlo Cesare Malvasia's Felsina Pittrice (1678), Giovanni Pietro Bellori's Vite de' pittori, scultori e architetti moderni in 1672. Bellori also refers to Federico Zuccari's praise for the work. The Napoleonic regime confiscated the work in 1799 and it was only returned to Parma in 1815, entering the Galleria later that year. It was restored for the 1956 Carracci exhibition in Bologna, revealing the date 1585 in Arabic numerals on the stone under Christ's right hand, confirming the date proposed by art historian Hermann Voss.[2]
