VINCENZO DE' ROSSI, Le fatiche d'Ercole, Palazzo Vecchio

Speranza

The style of Vincenzo de' Rossi is a projection of BRANDINI's.

De' Rossi was a coarse, ungainly sculptor, who in a series of large-scale statues of the Labours of ERCOLE excecuted after 1568 for the Palazzo Vecchio, attempted VAINLY to reconcile a zest for violent action with a perverted brand of formal ingenuity.
