Lonely Planet review for Oratorio di Santa Cecilia

Lorenzo Costa and Francesco Raibolini (known as Il Francia) were mainly responsible for the magnificent 16th-century frescoes in the Oratorio di Santa Cecilia, one of Bologna’s unsung gems. Depicting the life and Technicolor death of St Cecilia and her husband Valeriano, they are in remarkably good nick, their colours vibrant and their imagery bold and unabashed.
