The center of the altarpiece is a fresco fragment, much restored and now faded, of Virgin and Child,
taken for this chapel from the wall of a nearby street in 1640, attributed to Filippino Lippi. The story attached to it is that a man playing boules lost badly, threw a boule at the image in fury and was paralyzed as a result for forty days.
