Chapels of San Maurizio in Milan

Chapels of San Maurizio in Milan with frescoes of the Baptism of Christ and Deposition

The third chapel on the left of San Maurizio, which gives access to the passage to the Hall of the Nuns, has the Baptism of Christ as the main fresco. The influence of Leonardo da Vinci is clear in the angels. Leonardo’s The Last Supper also influenced Deposition from the Cross, which is in the final chapel before the passage to the second half of the church.
