Installed in the second room is a group of statues from the first half of the fourteenth century, dramatically arranged like figures emerging from behind stage scenery. These remarkable works, which were often part of monumental groups, are attributed to the so-called “Master of Sant’Anastasia” circle, and represent perhaps the most original period in the history of Veronese sculpture. Carved in “pietra gallina”, a soft sandstone quarried in nearby Avesa, these figures were originally painted.
