Chiesa di Santa Maria Madre delle Grazie

This 16th-century church was built by members of the Fraternity of Death (men who cared for plague sufferers). Inside, the Madonna delle Grazie (1555) is a painting of a pregnant Madonna that may slightly predate Piero's Parto in Monterchi. The artist was Raffaellino del Colle, a member of the fraternity, who included a skull at the Madonna's feet as a reference to the fraternity's sombre work.
