Fidenza, duomo (Cathedral of San Donnino), right tower (Trabucco Tower), west front: detail of the frieze with “Stories of Berta, Milone and Rolandino” told by two Chanson de Geste between the end of the 12th and the beginning of the 13th century.
From the left, a young lion – an allegory of Rolandino – bites a horse in the neck. Milone, followed by his son Rolandino, goes into the woods to get wood to sell. Milone fights with a bandit who wants to kidnap Berta, who has become pregnant.
