Una vista del Battistero del Duomo di Cremona, ripreso dall'alto campanile del Torrazzo.
Il Battistero, a pianta ottagonale, fu costruito a partire dal 1167, ma subì significativi rimaneggiamenti nel corso del XVI sec. quando vennero ricoperte di marmo le due facciate prospicienti la piazza.

A view of the Baptistery of Cremona Cathedral Church (Cremona is a town in Northern Italy).
