| Description |  |
Faith had a chalice and a cross, now broken. As represented by Mino da Fiesole, Faith and a companion piece Charity appear as young girls in clinging. Typical of Mino's style is the treatment of textile folds and locks of hair, giving these features an ornamental quality different from the softer approach of Desiderio and Antonio Rossellino.
