The Tornabuoni Altarpiece (Italian - Pala Tornabuoni) is a tempera on panel painting by Domenico Ghirlandaio and his studio as the high altarpiece for the Tornabuoni Chapel in Santa Maria Novella.[1] It was begun around 1490 and completed around 1498, four years after the painter's death. It is now split between several museums, with the central panel and two others now in the Alte Pinakothek in Munich.[2]
