Frescoes for S. Cresci

What follows is a sequence of images from the first of the last two frescoes illustrating the life of S. Cresci for a chapel next to the eponymous church in the Mugello, Tuscany; the images present the sequence of day's work, or giornate, from the sinopia underpainting through the five days required to complete the scene and its frame.
