Note 16 — Chapter II · THE PAVEMENT
Reading edition
The author of Siena e il suo Territorio, p. 211, states that these figures were executed originally in 1513, and suggests that they may have been designed by Giacomo Cozzarelli; but I have hitherto found no authority to support that statement, and they are now too much restored to assist one’s judgment by comparison with other work of that artist. Moreover, as Giacomo Cozzarelli at that date would have been very old, since we read of work done by him as far back as 1447, this is very improbable.
