DESCRIPTIVE INFORMATION

"Abraham Parting from Lot in the Land of Canaan" is one of the most significant scenes in Bartolo di Fredi's cycle of Old Testament Stories.

The scene illustrates the moment when Abraham and his nephew Lot decide to separate to avoid conflict among their shepherds due to the excessive number of livestock in a limited territory.

The work is located on the left wall (south wall) of the Collegiate Church of Santa Maria Assunta, commonly known as the Duomo.
