## Commentary

From 1451 to 1456 Federighi served as capomaestro of Orvieto Cathedral, which, no doubt, contributed to his failure to fulfil his Sienese obligations. He contributed some work to the cathedral façade, including the addition of niches to the topmost edge of the rose window, and designed a holy water basin for the interior.
