Description:
|
Between 1746 and 1748 the Brancacci Chapel was extensively redecorated; a new ceiling vault and window were constructed. Vincenzo Meucci then frescoed the ceiling with the Virgin Consigning the Brown Scapular to St. Simon Stock, thus destroying Masolino’s Evangelists. At the same time the lunettes of the Shipwreck of the Apostles and the Calling of the Apostles were painted over. St. Simon Stock was an early (died 1265) prior general of the Carmelite order; the Virgin in this association is Our Lady of Mount Carmel.
