Art History Lecture Series | Piero della Francesca’s Legend of the True Cross

You’ve seen the Sistine Chapel, but do you know the Bacci Chapel? Between 1452 and 1466, artist Piero della Francesca created a fresco cycle relating stories of the Christian cross in the church of San Francesco, Arezzo, in which images of radiant faith alternate with scenes of warfare and violence.
