Padua’s fourteenth-century fresco cycles, Italy.


This property is composed of eight religious and secular building complexes, within the historic walled city of  Padua, which house a selection of fresco cycles painted between 1302 and 1397 by different artists for different types of patron and within buildings of diverse functions. Nevertheless, the frescos maintain a unity of style and content. They include Giotto’s Scrovegni Chapel fresco cycle, considered to have marked the beginning of a revolutionary development in the history of mural painting and many others. 

Thank you Cristina for the nice site card and stamp.
