Sant'Andrea, Spello
Sant’Andrea is a 14th-century church located in Spello, province of Perugia, region of Umbria, Italy. History A church at this site is documented since 1025, as belonging to Camaldolese monks from the monastery of San Silvestro on Monte Subasio. In the 13th century, the church came under the rule of the bishop of Spoleto, who then granted it, and surrounding farms, to monks of the Franciscan order. Soon thereafter a Franciscan monastery was begun. In 1254, Pope Innocent IV, and again in 1256 Pope Alexander IV, confirmed these grants. In 1258, the latter pope granted indulgences to be offered over ten years to help pay for the erection of the monastery. The monastery was aided by its affiliation with the blessed Andrea Caccioli (1194-1254), who had been an original novice under St Francis, and had been the earliest leader of this monastery. In 1360, the blessed monk was proclaimed a "co-patron" of the town, although he did not get ''cultus confirmation'' by the Vatican until 1738 ...

Spello - Chiesa Di Sant'Andrea
Spello (in Antiquity: Hispellum) is an ancient town and ''comune'' (township) of Italy, in the province of Perugia in eastern-central Umbria, on the lower southern flank of Mt. Subasio. It is 6 km (4 mi) NNW of Foligno and 10 km (6 mi) SSE of Assisi. The old walled town lies on a regularly NW-SE sloping ridge that eventually meets the plain. From the top of the ridge, Spello commands a good view of the Umbrian plain towards Perugia; at the bottom of the ridge, the town spills out of its walls into a small modern section (or ''borgo'') served by the rail line from Rome to Florence via Perugia. History Populated in ancient times by the Umbri, it became a Roman colony in the 1st century BC. Under the reign of Constantine the Great it was called ''Flavia Constans'', as attested by a document preserved in the local Communal Palace. Main sights The densely inhabited town, built with stone, retains its medieval aspect; the town is enclosed in a circuit of medieval ...

Dono Doni
Dono Doni, also known as Adone Doni or Dono dei Doni (1505-1575) was an Italian painter of the Renaissance period active mainly in Umbria. Biography Doni was born at Assisi. While is said by Lanzi and others to have been a disciple of Pietro Perugino, the first we know of him was that in 1530 he was an assistant to Giovanni di Pietro (lo Spagna) at San Giacomo in Spoleto. In the church of San Francesco, at Perugia, is a picture by this master of the 'Last Judgment;' and one of the 'Adoration of the Kings' is in San Pietro in the same city. There are in the Lower Church of the Franciscan Convent at Assisi frescoes by him representing the 'Preaching and Martyrdom of St. Stephen,' and in the small refectory is the 'Last Supper,' painted in 1573, which was probably his last work. Doni died at Assisi in 1575. Vasari is wrong in stating that he was a nephew of Taddeo Bartoli. In the Berlin Gallery there is by him a 'Madonna with the Infant Jesus,' who is represented as reaching af ...
