Abstract
The fifteenth-century Oratory of the Annunciation, famous for the paintings covering its walls, is located outside of the Roman gate of Cori. The construction of this chapel was sponsored by the municipality of Cori around 1412, and patronized by the Spaniard Pedro Fernandez de Frias. This Castillian cardinal commissioned the first group of paintings, carried out by an artist who was culturally related to Umbria and Rome. Between 1426 and the middle of the century, other patrons, among them cardinals Carrillo de Albornoz and Juan Cervantes, contributed to the termination of the decoration in three separate moments.
