Скачать или смотреть ROCKY'S ITALY: Tuscany - The Duomo of Volterra

Built in the 12th century, the Duomo, or cathedral, of Volterra is dedicated to St. Mary of the Assumption. The facade of the duomo retains its original central portal surmounted by beautiful inlaid marble, while the interior contains notable works by Gozzoli and Della Robbia. There is a 13th-century octagonal baptistery situated in front of the duomo whose main façade carries on the theme of bichrome striping!
