- Abstract :
- Traces the evolution and chronology of the standing female figure with one foot raised on a pedestal, repeated throughout Giambologna's repertoire, and proposes Renaissance paintings, drawings and prints (by Raphael and others) as possible sources. Argues that Luca Penni's composition Venus Wounded by a Thorn (engraved, 1556, by Giorgio Ghisi) was the source for Giambologna's Florence Triumphant over Pisa (Florence, Museo nazionale del Bargello) and for his Fata Morgana (art market, 1989), a fountain figure sculpted 1571-1574 for Bernardo Vecchietti's Villa Il Riposo near Grassina. Examines Luca Penni's artistic career and style, and speculates that his 'School of Fountainebleau' manner was especially appealing to Giambologna. ;
