Giambologna’s Colosso dell’Appennino (1579–80) overlooking a pond in the Pratolino, a former Medici garden also known as Parco di Villa Demidoff. The giant was originally surrounded by an artificial recess, appearing to live in a mountain cave. It was part of a greater arrangement of grottoes, fountains, sculptures, and automatons, most of which are gone today. Photo by Renée DeVoe Mertz.
