Just in the Siena Cathedral, there is a small room on the north side, which reads the Piccolomini Library Libreria Piccolomini, which is used to store the books of Pope Pius II (the one born in Pienza) The life of the pope is depicted on the ceiling and walls, very gorgeous.
The library building is beautiful and the reading environment is also very good
In memory of his uncle Enia Silvio Piccolomini (Pope Pius II) and to preserve the rich bibliographic heritage collected by the pope and humanitarians in Rome, Archbishop Franche of Siena Card Sco Todesshini Piccolomini (later Pope Pius III) By 1492, he built a library in the old parish northwest of the cathedral. The library summarizes the ideas of the Renaissance, namely to create a modern institution that is both a research center and artistic expression of the times. As for the frescoes that decorate the library, they were made by Pinturicchio and his studio between 1503 and 1508 to celebrate the life and deeds of Pius II. It enriches landscape paintings and is real and imaginative. Li's clothing presents rich glaze colors in the form of exquisite expressions of rituals and characters.
The decoration of the library is also very complicated, very beautiful and luxurious.
