Portal

Workshop of Biduinus Italian

On view at The Met Cloisters in Gallery 02

Este portal era a entrada principal da pequena Igreja de São Leonardo al Frigido, na Toscana, dedicado ao santo padroeiro dos prisioneiros. Um sarcófago antigo foi reutilizado para os batentes de ambos os lados da porta, esculpidos com cenas da Anunciação e da Visitação, à esquerda, e São Leonardo, segurando um prisioneiro emblemático, à direita. A entrada para Jerusalém no dintel, inspirada em um relevo de uma tumba cristã, demonstra que na Itália do século XII renascia o interesse pela antiguidade.
