| Summary: | Between the 12th and 13th centuries, the area of Tuscia, north of Rome, was involved in the diplomatic and propaganda efforts of Innocent III to annex it to the Patrimonium sancti Petri. In the same years, a sumptuous porch on the facade concluded the building of the cathedral of Civita Castellana, a relevant town close to the via Flaminia. At first, the church front had been commissioned to a team of Umbrian sculptors, but right after the excommunication imposed to the community of Civita Castellana in 1199, and shortly removed, the project was entrusted to the Roman marmorari Lorenzo and Jacopo, who had been also the authors of the vestibule of the church in the nearby cistercian abbey of Santa Maria in Falleri. The article proposes a reconsideration of the relationship between these two architectures, by comparing historical events and examining the architectural features of both churches. |
