Abstract
The following pages attempt to provide a clue for the dating of a group of Florentine Romanesque basilicas by an examination of their masonry technique. In establishing the chronology I hope to eliminate one of the main obstacles in the investigation of the Florentine Proto-Renaissance. With the main exponent of this movement, the Baptistery of Florence, I have dealt elsewhere.1 The central monument of the present discussion is San Miniato al Monte. I have confined myself to an examination of the style and the chronological problems involved, but an analysis of the particular historical and cultural conditions which this style represents will follow at some later time.2
