| Research Abstract |
Even though there are still many points of controversy on the subject, it is generally agreed that Lombardian Romanesque sculpture between the second half of the 12th century and the early 13th century had been evolving an inherent iconography which incorporated the French gothic art languages.
Based on these circumstances, this research speculates about its transitional features putting into perspective various arguments centering around Fidenza Cathedral, as well as the Baptistery of Parma, Piacenza Cathedral, Modena Cathedral and Lodi Cathedral.
The main issues are the following.
(1) The statues of the Prophets at the sides of the main portal of the facade
The way in which the iconography of the Prophets with the Virgin glorifies the church's buildings as the house of God as well as the womb of the Virgin is studied taking into consideration the cistercsian thought of the time.
(2) The statues of Adam and Eve at the sides of the main portal of the facade
This research describes how this iconography involves not only the "Ordo raprentationis ade", but also the fact that confession had been acknowledged as a sacrament by the Lateran Council of 1215.
(3) The representation of agriculture in the Genesis circle of the facade
The notion of agricultural labor in Italian medieval City-States is examined taking into consideration the social and political situation around that time.
