Notes

  • [a] Jacopo Chimenti da Empoli was paid 80 florins for his oil painting depicting the apparition of the Virgin Mary to Saints Hyacinth and Peter Martyr. He signed and dated the painting in 1595.
  • [b] A resident nun from the Minerbetti family paid for the altarpiece and displayed her birth family's coat of arms
  • [c] In his 1610 sepoltuario, Francesco della Foresta describes both the San Felice (Ridolfi) and S. Pier Martire altars, indicating that the latter was installed, perhaps in place of an earlier altar, before the Ridolfi altar was taken down.
