THE Cenacles Florentines

In Florence there is a little-known tour route of great cultural interest: the Cenacoli, rich in frescoes and monumental panels with the theme of the Last Supper.

The works are kept in the place for which they were conceived and commissioned between the 14th and 16th centuries.

An itinerary that opens with Taddeo Gaddi in Santa Croce around 1340 and continues with Orcagna, Andrea del Castagno, Ghirlandaio, Perugino, Franciabigio until arriving at the late sixteenth century with Andrea del Sarto and Alessandro Allori, who will close the journey with the Last Supper in the Carmine (1582).

💫LAST SUPPER OF SAN SALVI

In the ancient refectory of the Vallombrosan abbey on the outskirts of Florence, Andrea del Sarto painted the realistic fresco of the Last Supper, his most spectacular masterpiece, one of the most beautiful paintings in the universe (begun in 1519 and completed in 1527).

💫STOCKING SUPPER

The convent where Franciabigio frescoed the entire back wall with the Last Supper (1514) was called S. Giovanni alla Porta di San Pier Gattolino, later deriving its current name from the hood of the Ingesuati monks.

💫THE FOLIGNO LAST SUPPER

Cenacolo di Foligno: in the refectory of the former convent of the Franciscan Tertiaries of S. Onofrio, known as Fuligno, Perugino painted the Last Supper (ca. 1495). Characterized by the bright Umbrian background, while the figures appear to be from the school.

💫LAST SUPPER OF SAN MARCO Domenico Ghirlandaio's fresco depicting the Last Supper (ca. 1482) decorates the small refectory of the Dominican convent of San Marco.

💫THE LAST SUPPER OF ALL SAINTS At the head of the large refectory of the convent of All Saints is depicted the Last Supper by Domenico Ghirlandaio (1480), and the sinopia of the fresco is also visible.

💫LAST SUPPER IN S. CROCE The Last Supper by Taddeo Gaddi (ca. 1340) with the Tree of the Cross and other scenes above it, fresco. Formerly attributed to Giotto, it is perhaps the first great representation of the 'Supper' in Florence.

💫LAST SUPPER OF SANTO SPIRITO Fragment of the Last Supper (underneath the scene of the Crucifixion) by Andrea Orcagna (ca. 1370), fresco.

💫LAST SUPPER OF SANTA APOLLONIA The Last Supper (before 1450), dominated by the Crucifixion, Deposition and Resurrection, is the fresco masterpiece of Andrea Del Castagno.
