For the company of the Temple he paintedthe tabernacle which is at the corner of the via del Crocifisso, containing a fine deposition from the cross. In the cloister of S. Spirito he did two scenes in the arches next the chapter-house, inone of which he represented Judas selling Christ, and in the otherthe Last Supper with the Apostles. In the same convent over the doorof the refectory he painted a crucifix and some saints, whichdistinguish him, among the others who worked there, as a trueimita...tor of the style of Giotto, whom he always held in the highestveneration. In S. Stefano of the Ponte Vecchio he painted the pictureand predella of the high altar with great care, and in the oratory ofS. Michele in Orto he very skilfully represented in a picture a deadChrist, wept over by Mary, and deposited in the sepulchre byNicodemus with great devotion. In the church of the Servites hepainted the chapel of St Nicholas, belonging to the Palagio family, with stories of that saint, where, in his painting of a barque, hehas clearly shown with the greatest judgment and grace, that he had athorough knowledge of a tempestuous sea and of the fury of Fortune.
