The Cloister of the Dead at Santa Maria Novella is a somber and historic area within the church complex. It features tombstones from various periods, remains of frescoes dating back to the 14th century, and tall cypress trees scattered throughout the cloisters. The atmosphere is one of reverence and antiquity, with a sense of the passage of time and the significance of those who have been laid to rest there.
