Riscoperte e rinascenze nella scultura medievale astigiana. Le sculture trecentesche in San Pietro in Consavia

The church of San Pietro in Consavia in Asti is one of the city’s main monuments. From the church came an altar frontal, now preserved in the Civic Museum, decorated with sculptures datable to the first half of the 14^th century. From the same period are two sculptures, depicting the Madonna and Child and Saint Catherine, which are found in the ‘rotunda’ of the church, as an embellishment of the capitals. All the works examined were part of the same decorative campaign, which is part of a renaissance in figurative art.
