In the friars’ dormitory, each cell holds a sacred fresco, such as the Crucifixion, Adoration of the Magi, and Transfiguration, designed for reflection. The Chapter Hall’s Crucifixion with Saints presents devotion on a monumental scale, while the Coronation of the Virgin radiates light, color, and harmony. The Madonna and Child with Saints blends Gothic elegance with Renaissance perspective.
