Notes

  • [a] Though Giannozzo Pandolfini died in November 1456, the tomb was not completed until 1467
  • [b] For the agreement dated May 26th, 1427 between Pierfilippo di M. Giannozzo Pandolfini and the stone carver Antonio di Meo da Settignano to appoint appraisers to assess the value of M. Giannozzo's tomb, see Louis A. Waldman, “The Patronage of a Favorite of Leo X: Cardinal Niccolò Pandolfini, Ridolfo Ghirlandaio and the Unfinished Tomb by Baccio Da Montelupo.” Mitteilungen Des Kunsthistorischen Institutes in Florenz 48, no. 1/2 (2004): 105–28 (pp. 127-128).
  • [c] While the inscription carries Giannozzo's date of death, November 19th, 1456, the monument was only finished by 1467. Giannozzo had requested burial in his grandfather's tomb at the foot of the high altar stairs.
  • [d] The description of Giannozzo's place of burial "infralle panche di verso S. Maria Magdalena" indicates a position near the wall tomb of his grandfather rather than the older family tomb at the foot of the chancel steps.
  • [e] Though the monument carries the date November 19th, 1456, it was not completed until 1467.
