Works in Rome (1280-1300)
by ARNOLFO DI CAMBIO

In the 1280s and 1290s Arnolfo lived mainly in Rome, where he was in charge of a moderate-sized workshop. Several signed works from this period survive, the earliest being the tomb of Cardinal Guillaume de Braye (d 1282) in San Domenico, Orvieto. The ciborium above the high altar of San Paolo fuori le Mura, Rome, is dated 1285, while the ciborium over the high altar of Santa Cecilia in Trastevere, dated 1293, is similar to that in San Paolo in type but simpler in construction.

The last Roman work that can be certainly attributed to Arnolfo is the tomb of Pope Boniface VIII (Grotte Vaticane, Rome), which was completed by 1300, and possibly as early as 1296.
