Font Notes:
One of several disused fonts or stoups located outside the Cathedral, in the courtyard of the Museo Diocesano. This one, either a font or a stoup, consists of a hemispherical basin decorated with a rol moulding at the upper rim, and a blind arcade of round arches below; raised on a pedestal base the top of which resembles a Corinthian capital, the centre is cylindrical with thin mouldings at each end, and the lower base is square; it is quite likely a composite font, as the base does not appear to fit the basin.
