On Wednesday, August 24, Italian officials announced that the Basilica of San Francesco in Assisi was unharmed by a 6.2-magnitude earthquake that shook the country’s Lazio and Marche regions. The thirteenth-century structure, which is decorated with frescoes by Cimabue, Giotto, Pietro Lorenzetti, and Simone Martini, was severely damaged by an earthquake in 1997.
