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

Study for the Salviati Chapel

1580s
Ink on paper
Galleria degli Uffizi, Florence

This is one of the few drawings that have been persuasively assigned to Giambologna. It shows an elevation of the Salviati Chapel in San Marco, Florence. It features specific sculptures by Giambologna in more or less finished state. The drawing is a design for installation, not for statues as such.
