Aristide Petrilli
Aristide Petrilli was born in Tivoli, Lazio and studied at the Art Institute of Florence and then the Academy in 1889–90. He worked with Raffaello Romanelli before setting up his studio at Via Dei Serragli in Florence. Petrilli, like his contemporaries Caradossi and Frilli, is best known for his romanticized depictions of Renaissance and neoclassical themes often employing different colored marbles or gilt highlights. Petrilli exhibited a bust of Joan of Arc at the Paris International Exhibition of 1900 and Wrestling Bacchantes at the 1904 Louisiana Purchase Exposition (St. Louis World's Fair)
