Portal

Workshop of Biduinus Italian

On view at The Met Cloisters in Gallery 02

Este portal era la entrada principal de la pequeña iglesia de San Leonardo al Frigido en Toscana, dedicada al santo patrón de los prisioneros. Un sarcófago antiguo fue reutilizado para las jambas a ambos lados de la puerta, esculpidas con escenas de la Anunciación y la Visitación a la izquierda, y San Leonardo con un emblemático prisionero a la derecha. La Entrada a Jerusalén en el dintel, inspirada en un relieve de una tumba paleocristiana, hace patente el renacimiento del interés por la antigüedad en la Italia del siglo XII.
