Review:
Museo dell’Opera del Duomo, or Museum of Cathedral Works, is located in what was once an Episcopal seminary. Open to the public in 1986, the museum is the result of a lengthy project designed to present the medieval sculptures and art of Pisa. Many pieces are from the Piazza del Duomo reflecting the classical, Byzantine, and Islamic art of Pisa, or the three spirits. There are sculptures from the Baptistery, remains of Emperor Henry VII’s tomb, and an alterpiece from the St. Rainerius altar. Numerous medieval liturgical items like Giovanni Pisano’s Ivory Madonna to Pierre Ballin’s 17th century gold table service to a neo-Gothic chalice from Louis Phillippe, King of France.
