The task of producing the bronze doors took Andrea Pisano to the limits of his goldsmith's art, which may explain why in 1333-34 he extended his range into the realm of monumental sculpture. His early pieces in marble, however, still show the signs of work with soft wax: a small statue of the Virgin and Child (Bode Museum, Berlin) and the statues of Christ and St Reparata (Museo dell'Opera del Duomo, Florence).
