The latter, in particular, renewed the technique of the marble inlay giving life to surprising light-dark shades, including the spectacular frieze with Moses causing water to flow from the rock.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The floor is designed to transport the visitor on a path of meditation and purification, passing through the depiction of philosophers and prophets, sibyls and stories from the Old Testament. The central nave is the absolute protagonist thanks to the alternation of allegorical figures and narrative scenes, with the figure of Hermes Trismegistus, the first great theologian of antiquity, to welcome visitors as soon as they enter.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_24115\" style=\"width: 688px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-24115\" class=\"wp-image-24115 \" src=\"https:\/\/www.speakart.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG20230619163304183_1000.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"678\" height=\"508\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-24115\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Detail of the pavement in the Cathedral of Siena<br \/>Courtesy Opera del Duomo di Siena<\/p><\/div>\n<p class=\"p1\">A book has been dedicated to this monumental work by Marilena Caciorgna, professor of iconography and classical tradition at the University of Siena, active in the field of enhancement of the artistic heritage of the Opera del Duomo.
