Description:
|
Baccio (a Tuscan diminutive for Bartolommeo) della Porta took Dominican orders and the name Fra Bartolommeo in 1501, and joined San Marco’s congregation. The five lunettes over the Foresetiera (guest quarters, or hospice) doors attributed to Bartolommeo represent the Beato Ambrogio Sansedoni (holding a model of the city of Siena) and four Dominican saints: Vincent Ferrer, pointing to a symbol of Christ as judge; Thomas Aquinas, with a book; Peter Martyr, with the wound in his head; and Dominic, holding a lily and bidding silence. The lunettes are not recorded until 1736. They have usually been regarded as works of Fra Bartolommeo’s last years (1514-1517), but an earlier dating (1511-1512) has recently been suggested. Restored in 1986-1987. (Source: Cavallini to Veronese [website]; http://cavallinitove ronese.co.uk/)
