The Baptistery of San Giovanni is not only one of the most magnificent monuments in all Italy, but also a splendid anthology of great Florentine art in marble and stone, in mosaic and bronze, and the emblem of the religious and political ideals of Florence. Specially-taken photographs of superlative quality reveal the splendour of the Baptistery in its entirety and its details: the majestic sequence of arches and polychrome marbles, the astonishing mosaics, the famous bronze doors, the normally-invisible details in the women¿s gallery upstairs. An absolutely extraordinary and unique spectacle. The most beautiful images from the book [click on a detail to enlarge it] Size: 320 X240 mm.
