View of the altar and Tornabuoni Chapel behind it in Santa Maria Novella
A few years after the Sassetti Chapel, Girlandaio decorated the Tornabuoni Chapel in the apse of Santa Maria Novella. The subject is the life of John the Baptist, 1485-1490, seen from the northern side of the nave. Altar with wooden crucifix, decorated with pots of red poinsettias and candelabra as it is still the Christmas season.
