Torre del Mangia, 1348
Piazza del Campo
Siena, April 2017
“The upper-middle part in stone was built by Agostino di Giovanni to the design of one Mastro Lippo pittore, probably identifiable with Lippo Memmi. It consists of a parapet resting on corbels. The pronounced petal-like arches between the corbels have led writers to describe the structure as a tulip or lily.” (Torre del Mangia, Wikipedia)
