Santa Maria della Carità is a Renaissance-style Roman Catholic church in central Bologna, Italy. ==History== By mid-13th century, an administrator under Pope Gregory IX, founded a hospital at an adjacent lot. For a time, it was an orphanage. A chapel, attached to a hospital, existed by 1378. From the 15th to the 18th century, the church and convent were attached to a Franciscan order.〔(Le chiese parrocchiali della diocesi di Bologna, ritratte e descritte ), Volume IV, by Bologna diocese, Lithography by Enrico Corty, Published by San Tommaso D'Aquino, Bologna, 1851. #40.〕 The present layout dates from 1583, by designs of Pietro Fiorini. It was enlarged with the addition of four large chapels in 1680 under the designs of Giovanni Battista Bergonzoni, a Franciscan theologian. The interior is decorated with paintings by prominent Baroque painters. In the first chapel on the right is a ''Visitation'' by Il Galanino. In the 3rd chapel on the right is a ''Vision of St Elizabeth'' (1685) by Marc Antonio Franceschini. The third chapel to the left has a ''Holy Family with St Anthony of Padua''(1680) by Felice Cignani.〔(Emilia Romagna ), by the Touring Club Italiano, Touring editore srl, 1991, page 213.〕 The most prominent work in the church is the altarpiece by Annibale Carracci in the 1st chapel on the left: this work by a 23-year-old Annibale depicts the ''Crucifixion'' (1583).〔(Bologna Welcome ) Official Tourist site.〕 Other artists include Giovanni Valesio; Flaminio Torre (''Virgin and Saints''); Giovanni Battista Fiorini; Antonio Crespi; Luigi Quaini; and Luigi Crespi.
