A clue.
Here's another creation by our mystery painter. However, this work is not a painting, it is a mosaic:

.
A clue to the clue above:
Dante - Baptism
.
The mosaic is on the Baptistry ceiling in Florence. Coppo de Marcovaldo is the artist. The first one is, believe it or not, Madonna and Child
Great!
Also referred to as "Madonna del Bordone".
Interesting story I discovered about the painting according to Wiki. Coppo was imprisoned in Siena and paid his ransom by executing the painting, which is located in Santa Maria dei Servi. As you mentioned, the mosaic is in the Battistero di San Giovanni which is near the Basilica di Santa Maria del Fiore.
.
A little detour into the world of sculpture.
