Abstract
The paper analyses the content of the so far unknown Florentine confraternal statute of the lay company of Santa Maria Assunta in San Pier Gattolino. It traces the history of this church and the brotherhood that produced the statute book in the 15th century, and explains the relationship between text and illuminated images. The report highlights that both the rules and the pictures formed part of an integrated message contributing to the practical application of the laws and increasing the symbolic value of them.
