This is a detail of the Fountain of Juno which was planned for a room of the Palazzo Vecchio. Though all the components were complete by 1563, the fountain was never erected as planned. It was installed first at the Medici Villa at Pratolino and later behind the Pitti Palace and is now partly reconstructed in the Bargello.
