Abstract
The splendid tomb of Enrico Minutolo was made of painted marble for the Minutolo Chapel in the Cathedral of Naples in 1405. This rich ensemble includes sculptures of the Crucifixion, Annunciation, Nativity, the deceased lying on a bier, revealed by angels who draw back curtains, saints, prophets, and allegorical personifications. These photographs were taken in 2022, when the chapel was under restoration, and a large piece of plywood blocked part of the tomb.
