In my opinion, Ghirlandaio, more than any other artist, symbolizes Florence at its peak. His work (and that of other masters) is on display here in this pretty church. His St. Jerome, on the left wall, is a fine example (note the spectacles on the table). However, in the cloister is Ghirlandaio's Last Supper. What a masterwork this is, with... More 

Be careful with the visiting times but if you can visit this church and the burial place of Botticelli and of the Vespucci family. You will see also a beautiful Giotto Crucifix and two Ghirlandaio. However I was disappointed as the Last Supper of Ghirlandaio was closed and I could not see it.

Famous church in Florence. Famous for works by Giotto as well as his last resting place. Don't miss the Last Supper fresco supposedly which inspired Leonardo's Last Supper..is near the cloisters

Very nice church with tomb of Boticelli. Interesting history with tombs of Vespucci tombs. Just another of the fascinating wonderful churches in Florence. Not always open so check the hours.

We just happened upon this while strolling back to our hotel from the train station. The plain exterior opened to a breathtaking sanctuary.

beautiful gothic church and monestary sevred by the franciscians. Americo Vispucci buried here. Right off the Arno next to the St. Regis and the Westin.

As we entered this majestic church a wedding was being conducted at the main altar. What such a private moment as this was we respected their space during the ceremony and went back to view the entire church later. (Check for times because this church has varying hours.) The church has a number of altars lining the walls. The paintings... More
