In 1962, when the museum was enlarged by adding other rooms, the hall was restored, uncovering the 14th-century pictorial decorations. It was then used to house the oldest works, which suffered severe damage\u2014some of which irreparable\u2014during the 1966 flood, when the museum of Santa Croce was termed the \u201cepicentre of the disaster\u201d and Cimabue\u2019s Crucifix became the dramatic symbol of the catastrophe. The extraordinary work conducted by the restoration laboratories of the Opificio delle Pietre Dure and the Soprintendenze of Florence, in collaboration with the Opera di Santa Croce, has made it possible to recover numerous important works that, over the years, have been offered once more to the public. Ludovica Sebregondi has written the first detailed and updated guide to this fascinating historical venue, which is also illustrated through period photographs and splendid colour reproductions. The description of the rooms is accompanied by detailed entries on some of the museum\u2019s most treasured works. In addition to Cimabue\u2019s Crucifix, Santa Croce houses the funerary monument of Gastone della Torre by Tino di Camaino, detached frescoes by Giotto, Andrea Orcagna and Taddeo Gaddi, Donatello\u2019s St Louis of Toulouse, Bronzino\u2019s Descent of Christ into Limbo and Francesco Salviati\u2019s Deposition. The guide also includes Lodovico Cigoli\u2019s Trinity, Alessandro Allori\u2019s Deposition and two 14th-century works of the Madonna and Child, which were returned to the museum following extensive restoration work."}
