The apse frescoes (1489–93) depict the Assumption of the Virgin, surrounded by angels and apostles, emphasizing Mary’s role as Queen of Heaven. The surrounding vault unites Marian devotion with Dominican theology, blending virtues, prophets, and scholars, glorifying both divine wisdom and the Dominican order’s mission.
