Santa Croce in Fossabanda is a Renaissance-style Roman Catholic church and monastery in Pisa, region of Tuscany, Italy. ==History== The region where the monastery was founded had been swampy and dredged initially by the 11-12th-century into a series of moats, hence the name of ''Fossabandi''.〔(Tourism site of Pisa ), Text curated by Società storica Pisana - D. Stiaffini.〕〔( Architettura a Pisa nel primo periodo mediceo: Pisa ) By Aa.Vv, article by Giusi Andreina Perniola, page 22.〕 By 1238, a Domenican convent had been founded at the site. In the 14th-century, reconstruction was designed by Bartolomeo da Cantone. From about 1332, the monks began to occupy the safer, central site adjacent to the church of San Silvestro, located inside the city walls. In 1426, the complex was again refurbished, this time under the Franciscan order.〔(Guida per il passeggiere di pittura, scultura, ed architettura Nella Citta di Pisa ), by Pandolfo Titi, Lucca (1751), page 297.〕 A portico was added to the facade, and the cloister was erected. Traces of 16th-century frescoes remain in the lunettes of the cloister. The church contain a canvas of the ''Madonna and Child with Angelic Musicians'' by the early 15th-century painter Alvaro Pirez di Evora.〔Tourism site of Pisa.〕 On the lateral altars are paintings ''St Francis and a Child'' and ''Angel and Madonna''(1649) by Jacopo Vignali. Other works are a ''Blessed Salvatore da Orta Franciscan cures the ill and sick'' (circa 1606) by Paolo Guidotti and a ''St Francis prays before the Apparition of Christ and the Madonna'' (after 1627) by Francesco Curradi. It holds a wooden crucifix from the 15th-century. Previously a chapel held an altarpiece was a ''St John the Baptist'' by Clemente Bocciardi.〔Pandolfo Titi, (1751), page 297.〕 A ''Madonna and Child with Saints Antony Abbot, Pope Gregory, John the Baptist, and Francis'' is now displayed in the Museo di San Matteo. In 1810, Napoleonic governments suppressed the monastery. A ''Coronation of the Virgin'' (1474) was looted by Napoleonic forces and is now in the Dijon Museum. By 1875, the convent had been expropriated and was used as a Lazzaretto during the cholera epidemic of that year. The cloister is now a hotel. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Santa Croce in Fossabanda, Pisa」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
