Rinuccini Chapel (basilica of Santa Croce) 1370

Giovanni da Milano's fresco, "Rinuccini Chapel (basilica of Santa Croce)", painted in 1370, depicts a figure with a scroll in a decorative, pointed arch. The scene is set against a background of a starry sky and intricate golden borders, showcasing the artist's masterful use of color and detail. The fresco, located in the basilica of Santa Croce in Florence, represents a prime example of the late Gothic style prevalent in 14th-century Italian art. The realistic depiction of the figure and the use of vibrant pigments contribute to the sense of solemnity and reverence often associated with religious works of this period.
