The same architect made the model for the Church of San Giuseppe at Santo Nofri,[1] and also erected the portal thereof, which was his last work. He superintended the erection of the Campanile of Santo Spirito in Florence also, but this remained unfinished, and is now in course of completion, by command of the Signor Duke Cosimo, after the design given by Baccio.[2] The bell-tower of San Miniato-in-Monte is also by this master; it was much battered by the artillery from the camp,[3] but was not destroyed; and the fabric obtained no less credit for the injury which it had done to the enemy, than for the beauty and excellence with which Baccio had constructed it.
