dc.descriptionCentral window with 12th century mosaic above, depicting Christ flanked by the Madonna and St. Miniato; Buildings in Tuscany were conservative and followed Early Christian models. An important feature of Florentine Romanesque is exemplified by the striking use of coloured marble inlays to form lively geometrical patterns seen also at S Miniato al Monte, with an interior articulated by the rhythmic alternating system of columnar and quadrilobed piers, the latter rising to diaphragm arches Source: Grove Art Online; http://www.groveart.com/ (accessed 2/10/2008)en_US
