Bishop’s throne
Guida Aquileia
- Location: Bishop’s throne
At the center of the apse of the Basilica was the chair of the patriarchs of Aquileia, of which today only a few elegantly decorated marble steps remain.
On the elevations we can see some of the most popular figures and motifs in the ninth century: palmettes and eagles separated by knotted ribbons, intertwining that curiously ends in figures of animals, vases of luxuriant plants inhabited by doves.
