Tomb of Holy Roman Emperor Henry VII in Pisa

The Duomo in Pisa once had a monumental tomb for Holy Roman Emperor Henry VII of Luxembourg who died of malaria in 1313. The tomb sculpted by Tino da Camaino was split up with most now in the Cathedral museum but the coffin with statue looking sideways is still inside the cathedral.
