Although psychologically this picture is weak, or at any rate not strong, it is full of pleasant touches: the supper really is a supper, as it too often is not, with fruit and dishes and a generous number of flasks; the tablecloth would delight a good housekeeper; a cat sits close to Judas, his only companion; a peacock perches in a niche; there are flowers on the wall, and at the back of the charming loggia where the feast is held are luxuriant trees, and fruits, and flying birds.

The monks at food in this small refectory had compensation for their silence in so engaging a scene.

This room also contains a beautiful della Robbia "Deposition".
The little refectory, which is at the foot of the stairs leading to the cells, opens on the second cloisters, and these few visitors ever enter.

But they are of deep interest to any one with a passion for the Florence of the great days, for it is here that the municipality preserves the most remarkable relics of buildings that have had to be destroyed.

It is in fact the museum of the ancient city.
