The tower was "called the Novum Campanile in 1502, when it was probably under construction. It is of four stages, with diagonal buttresses, a flushwork frieze at the base ... and a gorgeous top with stepped battlements and pinnacles decorated with flushwork” (Nikolaus Pevsner). The picture was taken on an overcast October morning.
