Madonna and Six Saints
by DALLE MASEGNE, Jacobello, Marble
The Madonna della Giustizia (Madonna of Justice) and the six patron saints of Bologna (from left to right: Sts Dominic, Florian, Procolus, Vitale, Petronio and Francesco) are from the loggia of the Foro dei Mercanti in Bologna. The building, used as customs offices with a loggia for the unloading of goods, was built from 1384 under the direction of Antonio di Vincenzo and Lorenzo da Bagnomarino.
The statues were executed in the Dalle Masegne workshop.
