Naro Chapel
• This chapel was originally dedicated to St. John the Baptist in the late 1400s by Giovanni Tornabuoni of Florence. The sculptures and frescoes of Ghirlandaio were removed or destroyed when the chapel was given to the Naro family in 1588. The Naro family however did continue the theme of St. John the Baptist
• Ghirlandaio's putti statues can be found elsewhere in this church on each side of the entrance arches of the Chapel of St. Thomas Aquinas and of the Chapel of St. Dominic
• Facing opposite of the chapel, on the interior of the left pillar, is Funeral Monument of Raffaele Fabretti (1700) by Camillo Rusconi
