Definition / notes: | Cd be synon. with (cathedral) masons' guild, but care as it's a) specific to a partic. cathedral, b) not Freemasonry but its medieval/Ren. artisan source, the masons & other craftspeople appointed by a chapter to build/decorate/maintain a cath. - Cf. Peter & Linda Murray, Dict. Art+Artists (my anc't copy Penguin, 4th edn, 1976), 348: Pisano, Andrea: "... bacame head of THE WORKS at Orvieto Cath. ..." cf. partly silly debate @ Leo.
