Final answer:
Ghiberti won the contest for the doors for the Florence Cathedral's Baptistery, creating two sets of doors. The first set, completed in 1403, depict scenes from the life of Christ. The second set, called the Gates of Paradise, were completed in 1452 and depict scenes from the Old Testament.
Step-by-step explanation:
The Bible story chosen for the contest for the doors for the Florence Cathedral's Baptistery won by Ghiberti. Ghiberti's bronze doors consist of 28 panels depicting scenes from the life of Christ, the four evangelists, and the Church Fathers Saints Ambrose, Jeromy, Gregory, and Augustine. The second pair of doors, called the Gates of Paradise, were commissioned in 1425 and took 27 years to complete. They consist of 10 rectangular panels depicting scenes from the Old Testament and employ a clever use of perspective to add depth to the composition.
