Room 9 - Segna di Bonaventura

The room is distinguished by the presence of two early 14th-century works depicting the Madonna and Child—one attributed to Segna di Bonaventura and the other to the Workshop of the Memmi. In the latter, the figure of the donor may be identified as Antonio Tolomei, a prominent figure and key benefactor of the Franciscan community in Asciano. Next to a 15th-century panel of Saint Sebastian by Pietro di Ruffolo, the Assumption of the Virgin by Giovanni di Paolo stands out, accompanied by Saint Augustine and Saint Michael, a work by Matteo di Giovanni. In the only empty corner of the room, an important architectural feature of the medieval palace remains: a wall section entirely built using pressed earth (pisé).
