Il Crocifisso di Ognissanti

Nerd alert! Julia and I went to the church of Ognissanti on November 6th to witness the unveiling of the Crocifisso di Ognissanti by Giotto. This is a large, painted cross that hangs in the church of Ognissanti (all saints). It has been under restoration for the past 8 or so years. (Not positive)

Being the huge art history dorks that we are, Julia and I attended a mass in the church one Saturday afternoon, followed by the curtain draw and WOW! Giotto’s cross. It was amazing.
