The Ovetari Chapel is a chapel in the right arm of the Church of the Eremitani in Padua. It is renowned for a Renaissance fresco cycle by Andrea Mantegna and others, painted from 1448 to 1457. The cycle was destroyed by an Allied bombing in 1944: today, only two scenes and a few fragments survive, which have been restored in 2006. They are however known from black-and-white photos. Antonio Ovetari was a Padua notary who, at his death, left a large sum for the decoration of the family chapel in the Eremitani church.
