# Decoration of the Feroni Chapel [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [FOGGINI, Giambattista]() - Date: 1651-1700 - Technique: Marble ## Commentary The Feroni Chapel in Santissima Annunziata was inaugurated in 1693. It is an invention by Foggini, overloaded at the patron's wishes. The abundance of reliefs and marble sculptures and the white and gilded stuccoes of the dome are new elements in Florence previewing later Rococo decorations. Eight artists worked on the decoration under the guidance of Foggini. The picture shows the works of three of the eight artists: St Francis by Giovanni Camillo Cateni \(1666-1733\), Fidelity \(with the dog\) by Anton Francesco Andreozzi \(1663-1731\), Diligence by Isidoro Franchi \(died 1719\), and the bronze portrait medallion by Massimiliano Soldani Benzi \(1656-1740\). The other artists were the sculptors Giuseppe Piamontini \(1664-1742\) and Carlo Marcellini \(1644-1713\), the painter Johann Karl Loth \(1632-1698\), and an unknown goldsmith working from a design by Foggini. ## Related artworks - [Battle of Anghiari]() - [Bust of Cardinal Gian Carlo de' Medici]() - [Bust of Grand Prince Ferdinando de' Medici]() - [Cosimo III de' Medici]() - [Elector Palatine's cabinet]() - [Ferdinando de' Medici]() - [First Mass of St Andrea]() - [Portrait of Anna Maria Luisa de' Medici as a Child]() - [Prie-dieu of the Electress Palatine]() - [Reliquary of St Sigismund \(detail\)]() - [Reliquary of St Sigismund]() - [Stoup decorated with the Annunciation]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
