Description:
|
This roundel was originally above a door in Siena Cathedral, removed about 1660. In 1457 Donatello actually moved to Siena in order to work on a side chapel and on some bronze doors for the cathedral. From his stay there only a large marble roundel of the Virgin and Child over the Porta del Perdono of the cathedral, finished by assistants, survives. (The door project was abandoned.)
