There we a bunch of groups of French schoolchildren, the girls looking like picture postcards from Paris, so we had to wait to get into San Marco for about 20 minutes. The facade is similar to the facade of San Croce. Beato (Fra) Angelico lived and painted at San Marco for most of his life, and the frescos are stunning. Here is one image that appears inside the living quarters (he painted the cycle of the life of Jesus inside the living quarters, with every cell getting at least one image from the life).

The
Mocking of Christ
by Beato Angelico.

Fra Angelico's grave is located inside the church.
