St. Giulia’s Museum in Brescia preserves a capital that is a veritable rarity in the artistic pro- duction linked to the nunnery, founded by the last Lombard kings and dedicated to Christ the Saviour.

Abstract
St. Giulia’s Museum in Brescia preserves a capital that is a veritable rarity in the artistic pro- duction linked to the nunnery, founded by the last Lombard kings and dedicated to Christ the Saviour. On the basis of an iconological reading of the images carved on the four faces of the capital, this paper correlates those representations with a precise phase in the history of the monastery, the late Carolingian age, when the daughters of Lothair I and Louis II, both named Gisla, became members of the monastic community.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
