Cappella Tiranni

Cappella Tiranni, Renaissance chapel in Cagli, Italy

Description

The Cappella Tiranni is a Renaissance chapel inside the Church of San Domenico in Cagli with painted surfaces from that period. A central marble throne displays Madonna surrounded by holy figures while the walls are filled with religious scenes.

History

In the middle of the 15th century, Pietro Tiranni hired Giovanni Santi, the father of Raphael, to paint the chapel inside the Church of San Domenico. This commission connects the space to one of the Renaissance's most influential artistic families.

Culture

The chapel displays religious scenes with the Annunciation in the vault sections and below it conversations between holy figures and the Resurrection of Christ. These depictions shape how visitors experience the spiritual meaning of the space.

Practical

The chapel is located inside the Church of San Domenico and can be visited during the church's regular opening hours. It is best to check locally for exact access conditions and visiting times.

Did you know?

One of the angel figures in the frescoes is said to show the artist's nine-year-old son, who would later become one of the Renaissance's greatest names. This subtle connection between the patron, the artist, and his family makes the place more than just a decorated room.
