Scrovegni Chapel
The Scrovegni Chapel ((イタリア語:''Cappella degli Scrovegni''), also known as the Arena Chapel), is a church in Padua, Veneto, Italy. It contains a fresco cycle by Giotto, completed about 1305, that is one of the most important masterpieces of Western art.
==Name==
The church was dedicated to ''Santa Maria della Carità'' at the Feast of the Annunciation, 1303, and consecrated in 1305. Giotto's fresco cycle focuses on the life of the Virgin Mary and celebrates her role in human salvation. A motet by Marchetto da Padova appears to have been composed for the dedication on 25 March 1305.〔Anne Robertson 'Remembering the Annunciation in Medieval Polyphony' ''Speculum''70 (1995), 275-304〕 The chapel is also known as the Arena Chapel because it was built on land purchased by Enrico Scrovegni that abutted the site of a Roman arena. The space was where an open-air procession and sacred representation of the Annunciation to the Virgin had been played out for a generation before the chapel was built.
