View of the Cappella delle Arti Liberali

The Chapel of the Liberal Arts features reliefs of Muses and the seven Liberal Arts (comprising the Trivium: Grammar, Rhetoric, Logic and the Quadrivium: Geometry, Arithmetic, Music and Astronomy).

The carvings are closely related to the Planet reliefs, but tends towards visual patterns of a rather different kind. Instead of a design which fills the whole area of the relief, they contain figures drawn in upon themselves and isolated on their flat grounds.
