antonio pollaiuolo

Antonio di Jacopo Pollaiuolo (c.1432-1498) was an Italian painter, sculptor and goldsmith during the Renaissance. His brother was the artist Piero Pollaiuolo and the two frequently worked together. Their work shows both classical influences and an interest in human anatomy; reportedly, the brothers carried out dissections to improve their knowledge of the subject. Pollaiuolo's students included Sandro Botticelli. Pollaiuolo's work includes:

Judith (c.1455-70) - bronze
Battle of Naked Men (1465) - engraving
Altarpiece of the SS. Vincent, James and Eustace (1468) - tempera on wood
Nude Warriors in Combat (c. 1470-1475) - engraving
Apollo and Daphne (c.1470/80) - oil on wood
Martyrdom of Saint Sebastian (completed 1475) - oil on wood
Hercules and Antaeus (c.1475) - tempera on wood
Hercules and the Hydra (c.1475) - tempera on wood
Hercules (no date) - bronze

Giorgio Vasari includes a biography of Pollaiuolo in his Lives of the Artists. Pollaiuolo, Antonio Pollaiuolo, Antonio Pollaiuolo, Antonio Pollaiuolo, Antonio
