Frescoes in Santa Croce, Florence (c. 1360)
by Taddeo GADDI

Taddeo Gaddi produced a number of frescoes in Florence and Pisa, besides numerous panel paintings, but until his death in 1366 he was mainly active in the Franciscan monastery of Santa Croce in Florence, and his house and workshop was nearby. In addition to the frescoes in the Baroncelli Chapel, painted c. 1330, his late works, probably from around 1360, include the fresco of the Crucifixion in the sacristy and the ensemble of paintings grouped around an Arbor vitae (tree of life) in the refectory of Santa Croce. Several other frescoes that Taddeo executed in Santa Croce have not survived.
