Tournament and Hunting Scenes

The frescoes quite vivacious and enganging from a narrative point of view, include episodes of courtly life, such as knights battling in tournaments, hunting scenes and, on the wall facing the entrance a depiction of the emperor Charles d'Anjou enthroned amid courtesans and falconers, especially referring his passage in Florence in the same year. This scene probably refers to pacts of alliance between the sorveign and the Chelphs of Florence and San Gimignano, and is intended to memorialise for posterity an occasion of significant relevance for the city.
