The paintings on the faces of the three pillars, depicting Saint John the Evangelist, Saint Barnabas and Saint Peter, got a significant recovery.<\/p>\n<p>A complete dusting of the of the Orcagna tabernacle was also made, as well as of the altar with the group of the Virgin with Child and Saint Anne by Francesco da Sangallo, and of the panel by Bernardo Daddi, the latter subjected to a methodical control of the state of conservation.<\/p>\n<p>The Orsanmichele Museum can be visited every day, except for Tuesdays.
