Picture of Doors To Siena Duomo

-- The Duomo of Siena, which was built in the 12th and 13th centuries, is one of the prettiest churches in Gothic style in Italy. The bronze central door is recent and dates from 1958. It was made by Enrico Manfrini. The scenes on the door represent the Glorification of the Virgin. The three large mosaics on the gables of the facade were made in Venice in 1878. The large central mosaic, the Coronation of the Virgin, is the work of Luigi Mussini. The smaller mosaics on each side, Nativity of Jesus and Presentation of Mary in the Temple, ware made by Alessandro Franchi.
