Summary

Description
English: Probably by Gregorio di Allegretto (active 1442-76)

Italy, Padua

To create this tomb, the sculptor re-carved an ancient Roman sarcophagus. The artist was probably Gregorio di Allegretto. He worked with Donatello, who is credited with inventing this style of shallow relief carving. The crown and halo may suggest that the figure is St Justina, one of the patron saints of Padua.
