Cosimo I Triumphant over Siena (detail)

1595-99
Bronze, height: 30 cm

The picture shows a detail (Marching Soldiers) of the relief on the base of the equestrian monument to Cosimo I. The proto-Baroque tendencies of the late style of the Mannerist Giovanni da Bologna are strongly apparent in this work.
