Duomo di San Martino Façade

This capital and spiral column from Lucca Cathedral (12th c.) exemplify Romanesque stone carving. The column displays vine scrolls, grapes, and leaves, symbolizing the Eucharist and eternal life. Above, crouched lions and foliate capitals merge classical motifs with Christian symbolism, illustrating Lucca’s medieval artistic synthesis.
