Orvieto - il Duomo
capolavoro architettonico del gotico italiano
The Cathedral was built between the end of the 13th century and the first half of the 14th century and marks Orvieto's peak development. The new cathedral was titled to Santa Maria Assunta in Cielo and erected over the ruins of two other churches: the previous mother church and St. Costanzo. The works spanned several centuries and produced one of the more grandiose examples of Italian medieval architecture.
The facade, a great triptych built by Lorenzo Maitani in the first years of the 14th century, is certainly the prime masterpiece of Italian decorative Gothic. Superb mosaics on gilt backgrounds cover every surface free of architectural structures or bas-reliefs. The elegant, large rose window above the central portal was created by Orcagna between 1354 and 1380.
