Synopsis
English text.Livorno, 2013; paperback, pp. 186, 160 b/w and col. ill. and plates, cm 21x25. Un itinerario che si snoda all'interno dell'ampia mole della Cattedrale di Siena, con il Pavimento e la 'Porta del cielo', include il 'Duomo nuovo' con il Facciatone e prosegue in Cripta e nel Battistero alla scoperta dell'animo umano e delle verità della fede attraverso la cultura e l'arte. Il volume, corredato da un'ampia scelta di immagini, intende offrire al lettore una visione completa dell'intero complesso monumentale di Siena, con il Duomo dall'imponente facciata, la preziosa Cripta e il Battistero famoso per lo straordinario Fonte Battesimale. Secondo il consueto approccio storico-artistico-architettonico, il complesso viene illustrato con un linguaggio chiaro ed esaustivo che accompagna il lettore durante la visita, ma la vera grande novità di questo volume risiede nel tentativo riuscito di offrire anche una guida ai significati simbolici del luogo. La storia e la descrizione delle opere di grandi artisti - tra cui Nicola e Giovanni Pisano, Duccio di Buoninsegna, Antonio Federighi, Donatello, Pinturicchio, Domenico Beccafumi, Michelangelo, Bernini, Jacopo della Quercia, Lorenzo Ghiberti e Donatello - sono accompagnate dalla spiegazione dei simboli racchiusi nei capolavori che si presentano agli occhi del visitatore a Siena o a quelli del lettore che, grazie alla selezione di illustrazioni, intende conoscere il patrimonio del luogo più rappresentativo della città.
