Subsequent works include a Crucifixion (1600) and a Virgin and Saints (1602; both Legnaia, S Angelo).

An album of 87 red chalk drawings, with scenes from the Life of St Mary Magdalene dei Pazzi (1606; Florence, convent of the Carmelites at Careggi) distinguished by their precision and clear, characteristically Florentine compositions, contributed to the iconography of this popular Counter-Reformation saint.
