Title

Jacopo della Quercia e la scultura in terracotta

Description

Studying Jacopo della Quercia’s terracotta production, the author suggests that the great amount of busts representing the Madonna with the Child that are usually ascribed to Ghiberti’s workshop did not have a Ghiberti’s model as a prototype, but some of Brunelleschi’s and Donatello’s models. Only the sculpture preserved in the Budapest Museum could be linked to Ghiberti.
