About this model
This sculpure is a cast of a bronze sculpture of the same name. The original sculpture, cast by Benvenuto Cellini in 1545, stands on permanent display in the Loggia dei Lanzi of the Piazza della Signoria in Florence, Italy. The second Florentine duke, Duke Cosimo I de’ Medici, commissioned the work with specific political connections to the other sculptural works in the piazza. When the piece was revealed to the public on 27 April 1554, Michelangelo’s David, Bandinelli’s Hercules and Cacus, and Donatello’s Judith and Holofernes were already erected in the piazza. This cast has slight differences in form; executed by Hubert Gerhard (about 1550-1623) for the Grottenhof in the Residenz in Munich. There are slight variations in beheaded Medusa and the base is completely different to the origin…
