o panels, with various figures, for S. Sebastiano. For the Hospital of
S. Catarina he painted a panel-picture with Our Lady, S. Catharine, and
many other figures; and for S. Agata he painted a panel with Christ
Crucified, the Madonna at the foot of the Cross, and a good number of
other figures, for which he won praise. And for S. Apollinare, in the
same city, he executed three panel-pictures; one for the high-altar,
containing the Madonna, S. John the Baptist, and S. Apollinare, with S.
Jerome and other saints; another likewise of the Madonna, with S. Peter
and S. Catharine; and in the third and last Jesus Christ bearing His
Cross, but this he was not able to finish, being overtaken by death.
Francesco was a very pleasing colourist, but not so good a draughtsman
as Rondinello; yet he was held in no small estimation by the people of
Ravenna. He chose to be buried after his death in S. Apollinare, for
which he had painted the said figures, being content that his remains,
when he was dead, should lie at rest in the place for which he had
laboured when alive.
