Description:

|
The terracotta bust in the middle of the cloister is an homage to the bishop Saint Antonino Pierozzi (1389-1459), who as archbishop of Florence, had approved in 1455 the birth of the Compagnia di S Giovanni Battista (Confraternity of St. John the Baptist). The Compagnia was commonly known as the Compagnia dello Scalzo, as cross-bearers in the Confraternity's processions were barefooted (scalzi) as a sign of humility. Antonino Pierozzi was canonized in 1523 by Pope Adrian VI. (Source: Wikipedia; http://en.wikipedia. org/wiki/Main_Page)
