Chiesa di San Felice in Piazza (Church of St. Felix), Florence

Located on the south bank of the River Arno, just west of the Pitti Palace, this church dates back to 1066, featuring a distinctively Gothic interior and a Renaissance façade attributed to Michelozzo. In 1153, it came under the control of the Benedictines from the monastery of San Silvestro in Nonantola, who decided to expand it in the mid-14th century. It was during this period that the five single-lancet windows with pointed arches were added, still visible on the exterior wall of the church. Also from this period is the lunette fresco on the sixth altar on the left, attributed to the Maestro del Bargello, depicting the Madonna and Child, Saint James the Greater, Pope Sylvester, and the abbot of Nonantola (circa 1365). The presence of the prestigious Benedictine abbot as the patron adds significant artistic and historical importance to the fresco.

The side altars house works by various important artists. These include the "Apparition of the Madonna to Saint Hyacinth" and "St. Peter Martyr" by Empoli, signed and dated 1595; "Madonna and Child" attributed to Starnina (1409-13); Polychrome terracotta "Deposition" attributed to Fra Ambrogio della Robbia (circa 1510); "Madonna and Saints" by Ridolfo del Ghirlandaio (1520); and the fresco "Madonna della Cintola and Saints" by Bicci di Lorenzo. The side chapels (created in the 17th century) feature paintings by Salvator Rosa (fifth altar on the left), Jacopo Chiavistelli (second altar on the left), Ottavio Vannini (after the fourth altar on the right), Valerio Marucelli (fourth altar on the left), and a fresco by Giovanni da San Giovanni, completed by the Volterrano, depicting Saint Felice aiding Saint Massimo on the seventh altar on the left.

One notable artwork is the "Last Supper" painting by Matteo Rosselli (circa 1610-1620), which originated from the destroyed monastery of San Pietro Martire.
