Angel of the Annunciation
by BRONZINO, Agnolo, Oil on wood
The altarpiece currently in the chapel, depicting the Lamentation, is a replica Bronzino made in 1553 of his 1545 original (which was sent to France as a diplomatic gift and is now in the Mus�e des Beaux-Arts, Besan�on). Bronzino also removed the original flanking panels of St John the Baptist and St Cosmas and replaced them with side panels depicting the Annunciation.
