Splendid transparent brown patina with traces of an artificial dark brown patina. An identical model preserved in the Civic Museums of Padua is attributed to workshop of Niccolò Roccatagliata. This could be an alternative attribution of our bronze even though in the recent scholarship similar bronzes are assigned to the workshop of Fanelli. BibliographyDavide Banzato and Francesca Pellegrini, Musei Civici di Padova, Bronzi e Placchette, Editoriale Programma, Padova, 1989, p.110-111.
