Description:
Located in the nave. The artist known as the Pseudo Granacci (who may be Poggio Poggini), a member of the Ghirlandaio family workshop may be responsible for the landscape. The attribution of the figures has facilated between Davide and Benedetto, although there is documentation of payment to Davide. After Domenico’s death, Davide took over the studio and trained Domenico’s son Ridolfo. (Source: Wikipedia; http://en.wikipedia. org/wiki/Main_Page)
