Campanille della Cathedrale - Volterra - Toscane

Description

 

Devant l'ancien hôpital de Santa Maria et séparée de la cathédrale par la chapelle de la Vierge Marie a été construite en 1493 pour remplacer l'ancienne qui était en danger de ruine, comme en témoigne l'inscription sur la base de la tour. Un clocher similaire construit à l'époque du cardinal Giovanni dei Medici en 1482 sur un dessin de Sansovino se trouve à Bolsena dans le sanctuaire des saints Giorgio et Cristina : il est probable que les Volterrans aient demandé la conception de leur clocher avec la commission des fonts baptismaux qui se trouvent dans le baptistère et que Sansovino a bien été exécuté en 1502 comme nous le lisons dans la même source.
