GIAMBOLOGNA
(b. 1529, Douai, d. 1608, Firenze)

Cosimo I Triumphant over Siena (detail)

1595-99
Bronze, height 30 cm
Piazza della Signoria, Florence

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 Giambologna are strongly apparent in this work.
