New Chapel, Villa La Petraia, Florence, Tuscany, Italy
New Chapel, with Baroque ceiling frescoes by Pietro Dandini, 1646-1712, of saints and angels ascending to the Trinity, in the Villa La Petraia, a 14th century Villa Medicea at Castello, Florence, Tuscany, Italy. This room was originally Cosimo III de Medici's bedroom, study room and private chapel and was remodelled in 1774 by the Lorraines. The wall frescoes by Rinaldo Botti, Giuseppe Gricci and Giuseppe Del Moro, late 17th century, depict classical architraved loggia with columns and niches occupied by Virtues. The villa is now a museum and forms part of the Medici UNESCO World Heritage Site. Picture by Manuel Cohen
