|
Address: Via di Quintole per Le Rose
This XIV century church is typical for its use of cotto as an architectural and decorative element, such as the external trimmings of the arches and of the pillars in the portico and the cotto lunette above the door.
The church has an architectural style which is both elegant and, at the same time, severe; its plan is a Latin Cross and its portico has three wide arcades.
Inside, in one of the chapels, there are Medieval and Renaissance remains: a Virgin with Child and other fragments from frescoes of the Florentine school at the beginning of the XIV century; in the apse the Virgin with four saints, a wooden board painted by Bicci di Lorenzo at the beginning of the XV century.
