The cycle of frescoes in the Museo di San Marco in Florence represents a unique sample of 15th century paintings, world-renowned among simple art lovers and scholars who visit the Dominican Convent in order to admire the masterpiece attributed to the beatified artist, the only one in history.
Actually the Museum preserves a “compendium” of the production of Fra’ Giovanni da Fiesole, called Fra' Angelico. Between 1441 and 1445 he decorated with frescoes the cloister of Sant’Antonio and the Sala del Capitolo, with the monumental work “Crucifixion and Saints”, as well as the 44 cells for friars, on the second floor, and the corridors that give access to them.
Given the importance of the frescoes and their excellent conditions, Haltadefinizione recently dedicated a high-definition photography campaign to the whole cycle. Some of these pictures will soon be published online.
