Abstract
The Arthurian cycle - which was detached from a tower in the countryside of Frugarolo (AL) in 1971 - is one of the most well-preserved examples of camera picta with secular themes. However, the initial hypothesis suggesting its commission by the knight Andreino Trotti lacks precise documentary evidence. Instead, available sources indicates that the property belonged to the Order of St. John of Jerusalem, and some details in the frescoes may support this hypothesis.
