Therefore, he was sided by some young artists, such as Benozzo Gozzoli, but he stopped working in some month’s time. In 1500, an agreement was finally reached with Luca Signorelli. The chapel, built between 1406 and 1444, is set on the right wing of the Orvieto Chatedral transept where there were also the sacristy and a semi-cylindrical small chapel belonging to the Monaldeschi family.
