Giovanni Pisano Pulpit

Giovanni Pisano Pulpit in the Duomo in Pisa

Arguably the most impressive art in the cathedral of Pisa is the pulpit made by Giovanni Pisano (1302-10). Is has over 400 figures including a naked Hercules (far left pillar in this photo). He clearly took inspiration from a similar pulpit in the nearby baptistery made earlier by his father Nicola.
