Liberation of the Repentant Heretic [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [MASTER of Saint Cecilia]() - Date: 1301-1350 - Technique: Fresco, 270 x 230 cm ## Commentary Legend of St Francis: 28. Liberation of the Repentant Heretic 1300 Fresco, 270 x 230 cm Upper Church, San Francesco, Assisi This is the twenty-eighth of the twenty-eight scenes \(twenty-five of which were painted by Giotto\) of Legend of Saint Francis. The fresco cycle in the Upper Church of the San Francesco at Assisi depicting the Legend of St Francis consists of 28 scenes. Although it is debated, the cycle is generally attributed to Giotto and collaborators. However, Giotto's authorship of the closing scenes in the last bay of the nave \(Nos. 26-28\) are denied and these scenes are usually attributed to the St Cecilia Master. ## Related artworks - [Legend of St Francis: 26.
