Captured around 1900 by Alinari, Fratelli, this photograph allows us to admire the craftsmanship and artistic brilliance that went into creating this architectural masterpiece.

As we delve into the image's details, we are transported back in time to witness scenes from evangelist narratives depicting moments from Christ's life. This subject matter is characteristic of Renaissance art which often drew inspiration from biblical stories found in the New Testament.
