MEMMI, Lippo (b. ca. 1285, Siena, d. ca. 1361, Siena) Madonna of the Recommended 1350s Fresco Chapel of the Corporal, Duomo, Orvieto The Chapel of the Corporal is situated at the end of the left aisle of the Cathedral. It was built in 1350-61 for the reliquiary keeping the sacred cloth of the miracle of Bolsena. Memmi's fresco is also in this chapel. The painting was variously modified, specially in the 19th century. Some think that the only original part of the painting is the lower one, where we can see the Pious Women and the Brethren recommending themselves to the Madonna in praye
