The North Doors of the Florence Baptistery were made by Lorenzo Ghiberti between 1403 and 1424 and represent his first masterpiece, before the celebrated Gates of Paradise. The work is signed in the center, above the panels of the Nativity and the Adoration of the Magi: “OPVS LAUREN/TII•FLOREN/TINI.” After restoration in 2013-2015 (during which much of the original gilding was restored) the doors were displayed in the new Museo dell'Opera del Duomo and replaced by a copy.
