Pulpit by Michelozzo and Donatello, 1438
Cathedral of Saint Stephen
Piazza del Duomo
Prato, May 2022
“In the early 15th century, a new façade or west front was added in the International Gothic style, in front of the old one. In the space between the two was created a narthex or corridor leading to the external pulpit, built by Michelozzo and decorated by Donatello between 1428 and 1438. The seven original reliefs of the parapet were removed from the pulpit in 1967 and can be seen today in Prato's cathedral museum.” (Prato Cathedral, Wikipedia)
