Tombs in Tuscany (1315-21)
by TINO DI CAMAINO

On 12 February 1315 Tino, mentioned as Giovanni Pisano's successor as Master of the Works of Pisa Cathedral, was commissioned to erect the tomb of the Emperor Henry VII (d 1313) in the choir of Pisa Cathedral. This work was largely completed by July 1315, when Tino suddenly left Pisa for Siena where he created the monument of Cardinal Petroni in the Cathedral.

Tino di Camaino was active in Florence from the autumn of 1318 to the end of 1319. In Santa Croce he erected the tomb of Gastone della Torre, Patriarch of Aquileia, who had died in Florence in 1318. He probably returned to Florence in October 1320 in order to erect the tomb of Bishop Antonio d'Orso on the interior west wall of the new cathedral.
