Speranza
The group of "Apollo e Giacinto" appears to have been installed in the Boboli Gardens between 1757 and 1779, when an engraving by G. Vascelleni shows the object in the left hand made up as a club.
The figure appears as No. 104 in the inventory of the contents of Cellini's studio after his death on Feb. 16, 1571 -- "Statua di Apollo con Statua di Giacinto a' piedi".
