Gothic art and architecture in Pavia

Gothic art and architecture flourished in the city of Pavia (near Milan) between the late 13th century and the first half of the 15th. Thanks to the importance that the city still held in the Lombard area, Pavia was the protagonist of a vibrant artistic period, first under communal power and then under the Visconti, who intended through their commissions to assert their dominance over the second center of the Duchy of Milan, also commissioning works of great value such as the monumental Arca di Sant'Agostino or, by Gentile da Fabriano, the Madonna and Child with Two Saints.
