context_page_description: The Sassetti Chapel is a chapel in the basilica of Santa Trinita in Florence, Italy. It is especially notable for its frescoes of the Stories of St. Francis, considered Domenico Ghirlandaio's masterwork.
context_section_description: The fresco cycle extends over three walls of the chapels, and includes six scenes:
  Renunciation of Worldly Goods
  The Confirmation of the Franciscan Rule
  The Test of Fire
  The Miracle of the Stigmata
  Death of St. Francis
  The Resurrection of the Boy
  Ghirlandaio had possibly never seen the Stories of St. Francis in the Basilica di San Francesco in Assisi, but he must certainly have known those in the Bardi Chapel of Santa Croce in Florence, painted by Giotto in the early 14th century.
