Giotto, Arena Chapel
====================
Dante is mentioned in his condemnation (literary) of usury. And the chapel is built by the son of the man condemned in Dante's literature. (Dante worked for his friend the painter, Giotto.) A Pope granted indulgences for pilgrims who visited this church built from ill-gotten-gains.
Plot, intregue, conflicts of interest.
Is this present day "inside-the-belt" D-C?
No, its medieval Italy!
