Fresco is since 1532. I think soldiers are the part of this scene. I see one of them is crying, and another one has fainted. I don't know who are these soldiers. I suppose that is Cornelius, the centurion with his soldiers.

I'm always very interested in the composition of Lamantation frescoes. Interesting. When was it painted? Are the soldiers part of the Lamantation or another composition?
