Description
With the end of the Roman Empire, the territory of Mantua was also subject to foreign domination. Very few testimonies remain of them, among which this bas-relief stands out which the style suggests from the Lombard age. It is possible that it was a pluteus, i.e. a slab which, with others, separated the presbytery from the hall within the church; in this case the figures had to assume a symbolic value of a religious nature. In the lower band are depicted doves drinking from a cup, a symbol of the soul quenching its thirst from divine grace, an iconography that was already used in the Byzantine tradition. It is more difficult to interpret the horses, presented here with harnesses, that is, subjected to man. The slab comes from the current church of Mosio, and is the only remnant of the previous one, from the early Middle Ages, which depended on the abbey of San Tommaso (founded in nearby Acquanegra apparently in the 8th century and assumed great importance in the 11th and 12th centuries) . In the disappeared church, in 1226, the Po Valley Municipalities signed the second Lombard League against the Emperor Frederick II.
