I received a request for an image and am stumped. I have checked ASTSTOR, all the images databases, our slide library and found nothing. Can anyone help? Thanks.
I am trying to find an image of the following bronze statue:
"Boreas" (also sometimes called "Zephyr" or "Aeolus")
created by Elia Candido, also known as Elias de Witte
The statue was created in 1573, and is 92 cm. tall.
The sculpture is housed in the Studiolo of Francesco de'Medici, in
the Palazzo Vecchio in Florence, Italy.
While I have all this information about the piece, finding an image
is proving to be impossible - probably because there is little
written about the Studiolo to begin with, and Candido is a pretty
obscure artist.
