These two statues, which are thought to have been bought by the Blessed James Bianconi in Perugia, were moved here from in SS Domenico e Giacomo in 2016:
-
✴a wooden Crucifix, which is said to have covered him in blood as he prayed before it (in the chapel to the right of the apse); and
-
✴a figure of the Madonna and Child (in the chapel to the left of the apse).
Both statutes were recorded in the 17th century the Cappella del Crocifisso at SS Domenico e Giacomo, which belonged to the Antici family.
Ciccoli Altarpiece (ca. 1565)
![](Pinacoteca_files/Bev-Pinacoteca-Doni.jpg)
The altarpiece commemorates his nephew who had died when only ten: the boy is shown at the Virgin’s knee receiving the blessing of the baby Jesus. Gisberto was a doctor, and one can sense his grief at having been unable to save his nephew: two inscriptions below the arms of the Ciccoli and Sermattei families lament his early death.

Scenes from the life of the Blessed James Bianconi (1589)
![](Pinacoteca_files/Bev-Pinacoteca-Sarcophagus1.jpg)
Il Fantino painted these three scenes on the front of the wooden sarcophagus that contained the relics of the Blessed James Bianconi in SS Domenico e Giacomo in the period 1589-1686. They depict the Blessed James:
-
✴resuscitating the mason Maurizio who had fallen from the campanile of the church (originally dedicated as San Giorgio);
-
✴praying before the Crucifix in the church that sprays him with blood; and
-
✴turning water from the fountain in the adjacent cloister into wine, as he approaches death.

St Vincent Ferrer (ca. 1600)
This damaged altarpiece is of unknown (but certainly Dominican) provenance.
Works by or Attributed to Andrea Camassei
The Pinacoteca contains a number of works by or attributed to Andrea Camassei:
SS Joseph and Antony of Padua (ca. 1626)
![](Pinacoteca_files/Bev-Pinacoteca-Camassei1.jpg)
-
✴St Joseph holds the Virgin’s wedding ring and the staff that flowered in order to identify him as the chosen bridegroom.
-
✴St Antony holds his uncorrupted tongue (a relic venerated in Padua that symbolises his skill as a preacher) and an image of the baby Jesus, whom the Virgin passed to him in a vision.
Head of a saint (17th century)

St Sebastian (17th century)

SS Charles Borromeo and Philip Neri (17th century)
Trinity with Saints (17th century)
![](Pinacoteca_files/Bev-Pinacoteca-Pacetti.jpg)
The altarpiece was presumably painted after:
-
✴the nuns of Santa Margherita received important relics of St Philip Neri in 1627; and
-
✴Blessed James Bianconi was beatified in 1632.
The presence of these protectors of Bevagna, as well as the more ancient St Vincent, suggests that this was a civic commission.
