The pavement masters of Siena (1369-1562)
A 1901 London art history by Robert H. Hobart Cust, published by G. Bell and sons, on the inlaid marble pavement panels of Siena Cathedral from 1369 to 1562. Its photographic plates reproduce the pavement scenes, rotated sideways on the page, and show the designs in close detail. A designer could take from them the dense narrative compositions and the geometric marble borders framing each panel.
