Condottiere - Horseman from Santa Anastasia , Verona - International Gothic

 Salvete Omnes,



this evening we will canter quickly to Verona, where inside the Catholic church of Santa Anastasia there is a funerary monument to Cortesia Serego (1335-386AD), a condottiere captain in the Veronese army.



Cortesia II Sergo, his son, ordered the monument to be sculpted  by Pietro di Nicolo Lamberti and painted by Michele Giambono.
