Topic > Fra Antonio Pierozzi, The perfect leader of the Renaissance...
Zanobi's chapel is Santa Maria del Fiore and he is presented as a true god in his abilities. All three panels of the San Zanobi sanctuary show him resurrecting someone, a power bequeathed by God. Fra Antonio Periozzo is mostly depicted performing charitable deeds, but there is one painting in which he resurrects a child and another in which he heals a possessed man. This shows that even though he was not as close to God as Saint Zanobi, he was still blessed by God. Both Anthony and Zanobi were holy intercessors of Florence, meaning that it was their job to help the citizens of Florence enter Heaven. For this reason they were constantly depicted together, especially during marriage
