Orvieto Chapel

Orvieto is a city in the Province of Terni, southwestern Umbria, Italy, situated on the summit of a large volcanic tuff. The city rises dramatically above the almost-vertical faces of tuff cliffs that are completed by defensive walls built of the same stone called Tufa.

The bottom panel of art is “The Preaching of the Antichrist" by Luca Signorelli and his school (1499-1504) (in the left corner : the figures of Fra Angelico and Signorelli); San Brizio Chapel, Cathedral of Orvieto, Italy
