Giovanni Pisano
Pulpit
In the architectural structure, hexagonal in plan, the Pistoia pulpit (1298 - 1301) does not depart from those of Nicola. The trefoil arches become more slender and, above all, figuration has absolute predominance there, with accents of agitated drama. The decorative statues and the reliefs form a single sculptural fabric, flashing with light and shadow.
