Chapel of St. Luke in the Convent of the Santissima Annunziata Restored

Restoration of the Accademia delle Arti del Disegno’s Chapel of St. Luke (also known as the Chapel of the Painters) is complete. This uniquely designed space within the Convent of the Santissima Annunziata is known for its unusual combination of materials and techniques and the artworks adorning it.

The two-year restoration project was commissioned by the Accademia delle Arti del Disegno and conducted through the support of Friends of Florence under the supervision of the Soprintendenza Archeologia Belle Arti e Paesaggio per la Città Metropolitana di Firenze e le Province di Pistoia e Prato. The project provided an opportunity to both preserve and study one of Florence’s most fascinating late Renaissance complexes.
