1 "St George"– Donatello (1415-16)

2 Donatello 1386 — 1466 At the time Donatello was the greatest Florentine sculptor of his age, and had worked in the studio of Lorenzo Ghiberti. In his early years he worked in Rome with Fillipo Brunelleschi, excavating and studying in the ancient city. He had a more detailed and wide-ranging knowledge of ancient sculpture than any other artist of his day. His work was inspired by ancient visual examples, which he often daringly transformed. For example he did his own version of the statue of David. Though he was traditionally viewed as essentially a realist, later research indicates he was much more.

3 Zuccone – Donatello (1423–1425)
