Camera degli Angioli, Casa Buonarotti, Florence

Camera degli Angioli, with frescoes 1622-23 by by Jacopo Vignali of a procession of the saints and blessed of the city of Florence, in Casa Buonarotti, the 17th century palace home of the Buonarotti family, on Via Ghibellina in Florence, Tuscany, Italy. The altar table is by Francesco and Tommaso da Santa'Andrea in Rovezzano, 1627, and above is an intarsia by Benedetto Calenzuoli based on a cartoon by Pietro da Cortona of the Madonna and Child. In the niche on a 17th century console is a bust of Michelangelo the Younger by Giuliano Finelli. The building is now a museum dedicated to the work of Michelangelo Buonarotti. The historic centre of Florence is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Picture by Manuel Cohen
