This monument is exceptional for the series of capitals decorating it. On the ground floor, the acanthus reigns on the large capitals reflecting the antique culture of the master who engraved his name \(Umbertus me fecit\) on one of the most conspicuous capitals. ## Related artworks - [Ambulatory capital]() - [Ambulatory capital]() - [Annunciation]() - [Apocalypse]() - [Apostles James the Great and Paul]() - [Apostles James the Great and Paul]() - [Apostles John and Peter]() - [Apostles]() - [Ascension]() - [Bearded Man's Head]() - [Capital from Nazareth]() - [Capital of a column]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
