The Basilica di Santa Croce, located in the Baroque facade of Lecce, Puglia, Italy, stands as a testament to the rich history and artistic heritage of Tuscany's Firenze district. As you step into this magnificent basilica in Florence, your eyes are immediately drawn to the breathtaking view of the Duomo with Brunelleschi Dome and Basilica di Santa Croce from Piazzale. Inside its walls lie fragments from a cycle of detached frescoes depicting haunting scenes such as "Limbs and Demons, " "The Poor calling Death, " and corpses of a cardinal, a woman, and a nun. These remnants date back to around 1350 when they were created as part of "The Triumph of Death, " "Last Judgement, " and Hell series. Moving towards the transept's external part known as The Bardi Chapel, one encounters an awe-inspiring depiction titled "St. Francis and the Stigmata" dating back to 1320-25. This masterpiece is just one example among many scenes portraying various aspects of Christ's life within this sacred space. Another notable artwork housed within the basilica is the Bardi St. Francis altarpiece accompanied by twenty stories illustrating his life. One particular detail captures Saint Francis teaching lepers while holding one in his arms and humbly washing the feet of others—an embodiment of compassion that dates back to 1245-50. As you explore further into this architectural marvel, you come across fragments showcasing punishment for sins such as greed depicted through "Punishment for Miser" alongside Satan devouring Judas, Brutus, and Cassius—both originating from c. 1350 during The Triumph of Death series. Amongst these captivating artworks lies stained glass artistry featuring Aaron—a piece crafted in early XIV century—and Aaron alongside two Saints Deacon Martyrs also dating back to that period.
