This fresco, which appears to be the death of the Virgin Mary as Angels carry her to heaven (the Assumption), is outside the monastic building that was built in the 13th century. The Franciscan Friars maintained this church and monastery until the 18th century. It is now the Musée Franciscan located on Cimiez Hill in Nice, France. Inside is a collection of art and manuscripts regarding the teachings of Saint Francis of Assisi, the monk who founded the religious order.
