Discovering Parma. Baptistery

My dear Tom,
I visited another amazing and marvelous place in Parma: the Baptistery near the Catherdal.
The baptistery is builded with pink marble  on the project of Benedetto Antelami (1196-1216) and completed beteween the end of the XIII centtury and the baginning of the XIV century.
It's a straordinary example of a structue of transiction between romanic and gothic.
The thing I loved more was the rapresentation of the zodiac and of the seasons.
With love
Sigyn
