frati ingesuati della Calza

A group of Jesuati, or Jesuate friars, first lived at S. Giusto fuori la Mura, a friary outside the Porta a Pinti gate in the northeastern sector of the city, until it was destroyed during the siege of Florence. In 1530, they moved across town to S. Giovannino detto la Calza in the Oltrarno just inside the Porta a S. Pier Gattolini, taking four altarpieces with them.
