Description: | This scene is a fanciful recreation of the studio of the important sculptor Giovanni Bologna, who was working about forty to fifty years earlier. The complicated twisting poses of both the sculpture and the body of the sculptor are characteristic of the Baroque style that Giovanni Bologna himself used. However, the small-scale figures of the young apprentices are more typical of North European art. Both Giovanni Bologna and the painter of this picture, Balthasar van den Bossche, worked in France for part of their careers. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | beyond the North East art movement sculpture art | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
