Through a series of unpublished documents, the article reconstructs the story of the lost 'Madonna dei banchetti', painted by Gentile da Fabriano just outside of the residence of the Guild of the Notaries of Siena, in Piazza del Campo. The painted was carried out between 1423 and 1425 (just after the famous Adoration of the Magi now in the Uffizi Gallery and contemporaneously with the dismembered Quaratesi altarpiece), when Gentile had his headquarter in Florence and before his transfer to Rome (through Orvieto). In this story also Jacopo della Quercia played a role; he appears like a kind of supervisor of the work of Gentile.
