 Pisa Cathedral |  1064. Basilica with 5 isles like Old St. Peter's. Pilfered and re-used Roman ruins. Ostentatious style for time (interior marble) |
| Baptistery of Pisa |  1152. Circular building with dome and oculus (like Pantheon). |
| Nicolas Pisano, Pisa Baptistry Pulpit |  1260. Designed to impress. Uses human figure of Hercules to express an abstract idea. Pisano doesn't draw from just one source, but shows he appreciates the classics. Also material from Bible: Adoration of the Kings relief (3 Kings from East, making a claim Christianity is a universal religion) |
