Notes

  • [a] After being rebuffed by the Franciscans at Santa Croce for his offer to build a marble facade on their church, Castello Quaratesi turned his attention to the Observant community on the hillside above his neighborhood. His desires clashed with the Franciscan vow of poverty, and work did not progress before his death. Castello's former guild was left in charge and after a structurally unsound building was finished in1498, it was renovated significantly starting the next year and consecrated in 1504.
