The plans and the work-site of Sant' Antonino's chapelin Sto Mark's in Florence -the work of Giambologna-
in a manuscript in the Salviati Archives
The manuscript «Notebook of the building of Sanr'
Antonino's chape] in St. Mark's in F]orence,]579-1589»' kept in the Sa]viati Archives in Pisa,2forms a particularly interesting testimony to thep]anning and realisation of an architectural work in
the last two decades of the ]6th century in Florence.
The «Notebook» be]ongs to a kind of writing thatis rather rare in the historica] archives of noblefamilies and of its kind it is extraordinari]y detailed,rich and organic in data. It is divided into two parts:the first contains the journal of the expenses of theperiod ]579-94, with some copies ofbills; the second
-the memories of the work by masters and ]abourerswho worked in the chapel from May ] 580 to June1589. Figure l.
The ana]ysis of the manuscript shows a number ofinteresting factors about the architect' s ro]e in thesecond half of the 16thcentury, on the process of jointdesign , on client's ro]e in conceiving the work, ondrawings, plastic works and on yard organization.
The subject of the «Notebook», the chapel ofSant'Antonio in the church of St. Mark's inF]orence,' commissioned from Giambologna by theSalviati family,4 is one of the fundamenta] prototypesof a series of magnificent, ce]ebratory chape]s builtbetween the end of the 16th century and the firstdecades of the 17''', in the Roman area, like thosededicated to Popes Clement VIIl, Sixtus V and PaulV in the basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore in Rome.]n its composition we find a close link between
architecture, sculpture and painting. The chapel, a

handsome architectural composition contrastingwhite and coloured marbles with great dark bronzeplaques, assembles the small and rather idiosyncratic
repertory 01'architectural details which recurs in all 01'
Giambologna's architecture. Figure 2.
Figure 2View of the interior of the San!' Antonino's chapel, thepresent situation
The construction 01' the chapel, devoted toAntonino Pierozzi officially canonized in 1523 byPope Clement VII, belonged to the renewal counter-
reformist program, 01' the Dominican church 01' SI.Mark.5 The decisive change 01' this church (after the
elimination 01' the choir di viding the men' s area fromthe women's) was introduced with the construction 01'the chapel 01' San!' Antonino which stimulated thetotal change 01' the interiors.
The chapel is divided into two environments, oneat the same level 01'the central aisle 01'the church andthe other one underground. The upper level iscomposed 01'a hallway and 01' the chape!. Figure 3.
The funeral oratory and the crypt are locatedunderground. Figure 4.

The entry to the hallway is characterised by a greatround arc in serene stone, sustained by composite
columns and pilasters, surmounted by the marblestatue 01' San!' Antonino. In the hallway, the twocouples 01' doors on the side walls are inserted in
the frescos 01' Passignano, Traslazione del corpo di
S. Antonino on the right-hand side and Esposizione
del corpo di S. Antonino on the left-hand side. An archaving the same size as the one at the entry toward the
central aisle, sustained by two couples 01' marblepillars in composite style, separates the hallway from
the effective chape!. Both inside the hallway andin the adjoining chapel, the architectural body ismade 01' marble. The altar niches in ionic style andother architectural structures are located in the cleargrate constituted by a system 01' composite pillars
sustaining the trabeation, applied to niches or panels,elements framing sculptural and pictorial decoration.Under the trabeation each ofthe three walls is dividedinto three parts: in the central area we can find the
marble altar, whereas marble statues and the bronze

bas-reliefs are located on the sides. Gn the centralaltar, Alessandro Allori's canvas with theApparizione del Cristo is accompanied by statues by
Saint Giovanni Battista and Saint Filippo Apostolo.
The painting of the Vocazione da San Marco byGiovanbattista Naldini is placed near Saint Domenico
and Saint Tommaso d'Acquino, while FrancescoMorandini's painting with Gesu che guarisce illebbroso is set near Sant'Antonino Abate and
Sant'Edoardo. Bronze panel s above the statues tellthe story of Sant' Antonino's life. In the modelling ofthe walls, characterized by a great plasticity andchromaticity, the architecture is tightly connected to
the painting and sculpture. In the middle of thechape!, the sarcophagus of Sant' Antonino rests on a
marble pedestal.The chapel space is sealed by a segment dome with
octagonal base, surmounted by a lantern in whitemarble. The intermediate area with pendentives, theunderside of the arches and the dome are entirelydecorated with frescos. The pictorial program of the
dome is devoted to the Storie di Sant'Antonio: four
episodes of the Saint's life in the greatest segments
and four virtues in the smaller spaces are united bygrotesque decoration. Under the arches, the Sain]'s
life stories; on the pendentives and on the sides of thewindows -Prophets and Sybille. Finally the floordrawing in colored marbles reflects the dome's shape.Figures 5, 6.

The clients of the chape] were A verardo(1542-1595) and Antonio Salviati (1554-1619) who
fulfilled the last wishes expressed in the will of theirfather Filippo of A verardo (1513-1572) particularlyattached to the Dominican order and great venerator of
Sant' Antonino.6 The construction of the oratory for thefamily, which had at that time in Florence a notable
importance in the economic life and a prestigiouspolitical rale at the grand-ducal court/ was not only areligious fact but also a symbol of munificence andprestige. The work was committed by the family to
Giambologna at that time considered as the most

famous artist at the grand-ducal court and, as reportedby Vasari, «much in grace 01' our principIes 1'or his
virtues . . . very rare young man».R Francesco 1, whoemployed him exclusively for his works, granted the
artist to the Salviati family thanks to the goodrelationships between the duke and the family. Su1'1'iceit to remember on this subject the 1'amous sculptures,realised by him a 1'ew years before the assignment, forexample the Deeano for the Boboli Garden, the Venus
in the Grotticella, the bronze Apol/o for Francesco I'sprivate room and the Rape ofthe Sabine women 1'ortheLoggia dei Lanzi, initiated in 1579. During his first
architectural experiences, Giambologna -like the
other sculptors or painters 01' the 16thcentury that had
been working as architects- used only his trained eyeand his knowledge 01' the andent architecture. It's nowonder that he took part in the construction 01'architectural, even though small struetures, withoutbeing in fact an architect, because the solution 01'
structural problems was generally remitted to master
builders and carpenters. A1'ter all, according to Alberti,who claimed the prominent role of the ideation andplanning in his essay De re aedijieatoria, the architect
shouldn't necessarily be the direct performer of theworks, but he had to manage its realisation with
intelligence. The first experience of Giambologna inarchitecture was the Altare del/a Liberta in the churchof Lucca (1577-79). Contemporarily to the taskentrusted to him by the Salviati family, he was workingat the Grimaldi chapel in the church 01'San Francescodi Castelletto in Genoa (where, after all, he used thesame compositive scheme 01' statues, bas-reliefs,painting and architecture) and since 1584 he had been
working at the chapel of the Soeeorso in Santissima
Annunziata, Florence.9The Quademo, in which Giambologna is expressly
named «architector», clearly confirms that thearchitectura] ideation of the chapel of Sant' Antonino
together with the plastic and figurative creationundoubtedly belong to him.!o The possiblecontribution in the planning and realization 01' artistssuch as Ammannati, Buontalenti and others, pointedout by some researchers!! is definitely overcome bythe manuscript.
The two surviving drawings of Giambo]ogna forthe Salviati chapel, one 01'the general p]animetry andthe other of the wall with the main altar!1 do not havethe form 01' a free-hand sketch, which was the mostfrequent type during the 16th century, but areperformed with drawing tools (except 1'or the
decorative patterns) and have a metric scale inFlorentine braecio. Both in orthogonal projections,they are characterised by an extreme descriptiveclarity and cleaned lines. The minute and elegantrepresentation 01' the details is amazing. AIJ the partsof the structure and the decorative body are wellde1'ined: not only pillars, columns, capitals,mouldings 01' the tympanum and frames, bul also the
entire iconographic program of the sculptures, 01' thebas-reliefs and 01' the pictorial panel. With thesesketches the design architect transmits the who]e andunitary idea precisely defining all the forms, themes
and materials. Figures 7, 8.

Considering these particular qualities we canimagine the double finality of these sketches.Undoubted]y they were made to be deciphered by
others in the yard. At the same time, considering theircommunicative comp]eteness, they sure]y weredirected to a cu]tured client. ]n fact, we know thatsome sketches were sent in 1579 in Rome to thearchbishop Alessandro de' Medici in order to get hisapprovaI.]' Indeed it was the archbishop who
requested the execution of the chapel in the previousyears and who then supervised the works with
attention.However, these sketches do not make up the
principal means of communication between the
architect and the material executors of the works. The
transmission of the planner's idea to the workers
I
"Figure 8Giambologna. Drawing of the wall with high ahar, chapel 01'San!' Antonino (Florence, GDSU, 237a)
substantially occurred by using models. Themanuscript tells about the great model14 which,expressing the global original idea, served as a startingpoint for the rea]ization of single parts, but it also
mentions several plastic models of some details indifferent sca]es such as the one of the hallway ceiling,of the «dome with eight sides covered with bluecardboards to make the sketch of the paintings», of thewindows, of the arcs, of the roof, of the altar, of thecornice and of the sepulchre of Sant' Antonino.1s Therea]ization of all p]astic models was commissioned lo
the Florentine carpenter Bernardo di Francesco whowas qualified for this type of work.
The combination of the arts is the prominent factoralso during the rea]isation of the chape!. Themanuscript describing the works includes, in fact, thepayments for the architectural parts together with
those for the scu]ptura] and pictorial parts, that areconsidered to be inseparable. The works ofarchitectura] decoration interlace and overlap in timewith those re]ated to the execution of scu]ptures and
paintings.
1220 E. Karwacka Codini
The accounts minutely recorded in the Quaderno
makes it possible to explain some uncertainattributions to the artists. For instance the role ofGiambologna as executor 01' marble and bronzesculptures is explained, this rale being ignored by acertain historiography. The manuscript reports thecontract signed by the artist and the paymentsexclusively made out to Giambologna for al! the six
statues in the niches and 1'or the one of Sant' Antoninoabove the are of the hallway .16 In addition, the plastic
ideation of the bas-reliefs in bronze, al! made by theFlorentine foundry of the Dominican monkPortigiani 17 is confirmed. Portigiani is also theexecutor of the great winged angel on top of the aJtarand of the group 01' two angels lying on the sides ofthe arc frontispiece, besides the statue of
Sant' Antonino 1'or the same altar. 18 AnotherFlorentine smelter, Antonio Susini, was the executor
01' the oil lamps and grids for the altar and 01' thefinishing 01' the crucifix 01' the same aJtar. 19
The evidences about the pictorial works are veryimportant as well. as we well know, AlessandroAlIori had been chosen for the entire decoration in
fresco of the dome, the pendentives and the areasunder the arcs, and for the main painting with theApparizione di Cristo alla Vergine Maria dopo il
ritorno dal Limbo2°. The manuscript also reports thepayments for the assistants in his workshop,particularly to Giovanmaria Butteri. to Taddeo di
Francesco Curradi and Giovanni Balducci. There isevidence of other painters' works: FrancescoMorandini and Giovanbattista Naldinj21 for the twopaintings of the side altars, and Domenico Passignano
for the two great frescos of the hallway22 AndSimone di Domenico Ferri da Poggibonsi for thepaintings of Martini's chapel altar" and Lorenzo di
Francesco Nelli for the fresco gratesques in the
she !ter. 24
The entire manuscript shows the organisation ofthe yard managed by Giambologna. The role oIsupervisor and keeper of the Quaderno is assigned to
Benedetto Gondi, an erudite, expert and collector ofFlorentine arto He draws up two account books of theabove mentioned works organiscd in two differentways: one is drawn up as a real «diary», and the otherreports the payments registered according to theirgender and under general expenses. Both manuscripts
are extremely precise and full of dctails in thedescription of each item. Particularly the first one
follows the chronology 01' the interventions: thepreparation of the woks in autumn 1579, thereinIorcement of the bases in 1580, the constructionof the upper part in the 1582-85 years, the mountingof the dome in August 1585. The four subsequentyears were mainly devoted to the introduction of thearchitectural bodies together with the sculptural andpictorial decoration.
As regards the architectural part, a remarkable rolewas played by the stonecutter Jacopo Piccardi. It wasup to him to choose the marbles in Carrara, to realize
some elements and to get them under way.25 Forinstance, thanks to the manuscript, we know that hespent one year, in several journeys, in Carraraapplying himself to the choice of the marbles.
Piccardi had also to interpret the design producedby the architect and guarantee its realization in the
most consistent formo He acts as a foreman: heorganises the works, sees about tools and material s
and supervises the workers. In fact the realizationrequired to let out several workshops and technicians
on contracts. The stonecutters had a major role in therealization of the work as the attendance records showwith up to seventy-five workers, while the mastermasons were only eleven.26 A long list 01' otherworkers is listed, among which carpenters, plasterers,whitewashers, braziers, blacksmiths, panel makers,tiraferri (suppliers oI copper wire), tinsmiths,lanciaio (supplier oI iron and copper), locksmiths,receivers, conductors, wheelwrights, «navicellai»
(conductors of special boats), quarrymen, sawyers,fomacemen, grinders, sand diggers and lustrators.
Among the main supplies listed we obviously find
Carrara marble having the major role in thearticulation of the interiors. The architecturalelements in this material were worked out in thelaboratories of Carrara according to the modelsprovided for by the architect. Subsequently they were
carried by sea up to Marina di Pisa and Irom here bythe river Amo up to the port 01' Signa.
The «mixed stones» i.e. the coloured marbles,acquired mainly in Rome, but also in Faenza,Ravenna and Genoa had an important position in thesupplies. Giovanni Antonio Dosio, a known expert of
Roman antiques and experienced in marble sales isinvolved in the prospecting and purchase 01' thesestones of archaeological origin in Rome, therebyproviding the greatest part of the materials for wall
coverings and for the floor.n It should be pointed out
The plans and the work-site of Sant' Antonino's chape! 1221
that the visual and symbolic meaningfulness of semi-precious stones and the correspondence between thenobility of the subject and the beauty of the shape are
confirmed in this period by the Medicean passion forthese materials, particularly in Francesco I' s interests.However it was Cosimo I who solicited this type ofinterests after his trip to Rome in 1565, where he had
seen the t10urishing antiquarian market for their usein the panels, in the wall coverings and in the t1oors.After his return to Florence he entrusted GiorgioVasari with the project of a porphyry t100r and semi-precious stones and subsequently he entrusted him
with the planning, in colored mosaic marbles, of theChapel of the Principies at San Lorenzo in Florence,
wanted by the duke all in colored mosaic marbles.28Even though this solution was not immediatelyrealized, this marked the birth of chromatic
decorations for private chapels.The importation from Rome to Florence of the new
techniques of marble mosaics starts during the sixtiesof the 16th century thanks to Dosio who used hisexperience first in the sketches of panels and then inthe planning of the chape! Gaddi in Santa MariaNovella, realized between 1574 and 1578, that is tosay immediately before the construction of the chapel
of Sant' Antonino. In the last years of the 16thcenturyand in the following century, the predilection forcolored and semi-precious stones took the worldJyaccents in the whole peninsula. The sumptuary use ofsemi-precious stones replaces with time theirsymbolic connotation being used in noble chapels.
The success and the diffusion of the chromaticcovering in Tuscany is due to the activity of the newFlorentine laboratory, specialized in the creation ofmosaic and carvings of semi-precious stones2O In thislaboratory, supervised by Francesco 1, Giambologna
worked for a long time as one the nine draftsmen. Suchexperience, undoubtedly affected the ideation of thechapel Salviati, in which he proposed a new solution in
Florentine environment playing chromatic effects withthe colored stones, sculptures and painting.
In the chapel, Giambologna introduces thecoloured stony retlexes in the panel s with whitearchitectural structures, combining them with themarble statues placed in the dark grey background ofthe niches in serene stone, and with the bas-reliefs inbronze and, at the same time, with the pictorialpaintings of the altars. He matches the dome frescos
with the floor filled with colored stones that reflect
the pattern of the dome. A yellow marble columnsections, two «African» columns and a piece of greenmarble, coming from villa d' Adriano in Tivoli,3° a«white and black» column, two columns of blackmarble, but also red marble, red and green jaspers and
alabaster, all acquired by Dosio in Rome,31 togetherwith a column of Genovese slate, «mixed stones»
from Faenza and Ravenna supplied by Piccardi havebeen used in the wall coverings and in the t100r. Thiswork was very involving when considering thefatiguing and expensive transport on mules. Thechape! became famous just for the use of polychrome
marbles, as evidenced by Del Riccio in his workIstoria deLle Pietre32.
Among the other materials, almost all of localorigin, we find: gritstones, strong stones, serene
stones, tiles, mezzane, quadrucci (quadrangularbricks), flat tiles, small tiles, pounded bricks, brick
dust and marble, chalk, limes, various metal s, as iron,tin-plate, brass, tin, copper and lead, lumber of fir-tree, of chestnut tree and of cypress and glasses.
The contract of these last ones was given to theIngesuati friars of Florence33 For the execution of the
windows of the oratory, the ones under the ares of thevault and the ones under the lantern, the white glassplates coming from Lyon,34 from Venice" and from
the same Ingesuati glassworks were used, togetherwith the painted plates from Flanders36 and thecolored glass supplied by the Florentine bichieraio,Cesare Bandinucci,37 as well as the blue and yellowglasses of the same Florentine friars.
The total cost of this «much more regal thancivi],,3S chapel appears to be of 34000 SCUd03Y(145
scudo per sq. m.). It is a high financial engagementcorresponding to the clients' wish for having agrandiose and elegant oratory following the example
of the Medicean chapels in Florence. To have an ideaof such engagement just compare it with the expenseof 12000 scudo for restructuring the Palazzo deiCavalieri in Pisa realized by Vasari some time before,
between 1561 and 1564, upon Cosimo I order.4OGreat amounts of money, approx. 5700 scudo, are
paid for buying construction materials (4000 scudoonly for marbles including transport) and approx.
6110 scudo for the stone cutters' work. Giambolognawas paid 5400 scudo: 5000 for the sculptural worksand 400 for the supervision lasting eight years.41
The rather moderate expense, only 1549 scudo,
were paid for the paintings, while it surprises the
1222 E. Karwacka Codini
significant sum of 3023 scudo paid for the hangings
of the church of San Marco on the occasion of theceremony of Sant' Antonino translation which
occurred on 8 and 9 May 1589. For the celebrationthe fac,;ades of the chapels, with their pillars, theirtrames and frontispieces were performed in wood, inline with the Salviati oratorio.42 This stage pretenseconstituted in fact the 1: 1 scale plan of thearchitectural transformation of the church occurredwithin the following decade.

Saint Mark's Dominieans played an important role indefining the new theology of the Concilio di Tren/o. At
that time Antonino PieroZl.i' s thought was recovered byreprinting his doctrinal work Opera di S. An/onino.
arcivescovo fiorelltino utilissimo el necessaria per
l'is/ruzione di sacerdo/i (Pierozzi 1559). The first idea
for the reconstruction of the chapel was born already in1526, three years atier the Sain!' s canonization.
The relationships between the family and the chureh
and Saint Mark's convent date back to the 15th century.At the beginning of the 16th century Francesco diBernardo Salviati beeame the eonvent's prior:
afterwards Filippo di A verardo, who religiously
converted thanks to the spiritual influencc of the
Dominieian nun Caterina de' Ricci, ordered the
eonstruction of the new chureh of San Vineenzo in
Prato and expressed in the will his desire of building
Sain!'Antonino's ehape!.
The Salviati family, already known in the politicallife
at the end of the 13th century, since the end of the 14th
beeame famous for their aetivity of merehants. Sinee
the half of the 15th century they belonged several
eounters in Florence, Pisa, Bruges, London andConstantinople. Between the end of the 15th eentury andthe beginning of the 16th eentury they covered

prestigious roles in the political life of Florence. Sinee
the end of the 15'" eentury the family slit up into two
branehes, the roman and the Florentine one. Jacopo
(head of the roman branch) and his sons, thanks to the
relationships with the Mediei family, and in particular
with popes Leone X and Clemente VII, moved a greatpart of their aetivities to Roma and in the pontifiea1
state. Alamanno deseendants (head of the florentinebraneh) works during the 16th eentury in the economie
and commercial field and during the 17th century they
