@ Ognissanti`s Church


Ognissanti`s Church - Piazza Ognissanti ... Chiesa Ognissanti


Ognissanti`s Church
The Church was built in the XIII century but it was totally modify in the XV century. The façade is in a baroque style. In the Church there are paintings of Domenico Ghirlandaio and Sandro Botticelli. The fresco of Ghirlandaio, located near the altar, represents the "Madonna della Misericordia" and it is very interesting. In the church are buried a lot of famous characters as Amerigo Vespucci and Sandro Botticelli. However, the Ognissanti`s Church keeps the main painting of Ghirlandaio, "L`Ultima Cena"; this work of art takes up the whole wall of the refectory of the monastery. This fresco of Ghirlandaio in the Ognissanti`s Church is the most important anticipation of the unique "Ultima Cena" of Leonardo Da Vinci in Milan.
