Jean Boulogne, French by birth, worked in Italy, which is why he is known as Giovanni Da Bologna or, more briefly, Giambologna.
He was the greatest exponent of post-Renaissance sculpture, serving as a bridge between Michelangelo and Bernini, and worked mainly on mythological themes.
In Rome he studied Michelangelo (whose tension and dynamism he imitated in his works) and especially classical authors. His patrons were some Popes, Bernardo Vecchietti and Francis I de Medici.
Already established at a certain age, he became a sculptor to the Medici court in Florence, who paid him a monthly salary until his death at the age of 79 in that city.
