Summary
The frescoes in the Scrovegni Chapel in Padua are among the most celebrated works in the history of art. Giotto's work was a source of inspiration and instruction for generations of painters; it was studied and absorbed by Masaccio, Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo and Raphael. The frescoes were restored to their original dazzling colours in 2002 by a 50-strong team from Italy's Central Restoration Institute. (From Italy, in English) (Masterpiece) (Arts) PG WS
