Summary (English)
During an excavation inside the church of S. Pancrazio, numerous fragments of painted plaster were found in the make up below the 17th century sacristy pavement, north of the presbytery; three in particular are worthy of mention.
In the first fragment only the left eye, the nose and mouth of a face can be distinguished; the second fragment shows a woman’s face in profile; the third shows the face of a lady, almost front facing. Comparisons with other paintings, indications given in an inscription in which is inscribed the construction date of the altar (1444), together with a series of observations (see FOLD&R), give a date within the last quarter of the 1400s.
