Years: 1540 - 1540

Bartolommeo Ammanati has apparently studied with the sculptor Baccio Bandinelli, after which time he had worked in Venice with Jacopo Sansovino (assisting on the Library of St. Mark's, the Biblioteca Marciana, Venice) and designed, under Sansovino's influence, the monumental arch of the Benavides Palace in nearby Padua.

Closely imitating the style of Michelangelo, he is to be more distinguished in architecture than in sculpture.

Early marble statues include Victory (1540) and Leda with the Swan (both now in the Museo Nazionale del Bargello, Florence).
