Orazio Marinali
Orazio Marinali (1643–1720) was an Italian late- Baroque sculptor, active mainly in the Veneto or Venetian mainland. He trained with Josse de Corte. He is best known for over 150 statues produced by him and his studio for the estate and gardens of a single villa in Vicenza, the Villa Lampertico (also known as Villa Conti or ''La Deliziosa''). Many are stock characters from ''commedia dell'arte'' theater; others depict the so-called ''bravi'' (desperadoes). They vary in quality, and are often executed in local stone. For the same villa garden, Marinali also completed a large fountain group: ''la Ruota'', symbolizing the four corners of the world. Many of Marinali's garden statues from the Vicenza area were removed to the Villa La Pietra outside Florence in the 20th century, to decorate gardens created there by Arthur Acton. They stand there alongside statues by the Paduan sculptor Antonio Bonazza Antonio Bonazza (1698 – c. 1762) was an Italian sculptor of the Rococo. Anto ...
