Dovizia in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, December 2007

Dovizia in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, December 2007
Dovizia
Glazed terracotta
Workshop of Giovanni della Robbia (1469- 1529/30)
Florence, late 15th- early 16th century

Accession #: 22.16.6

This statuette is one of a number of della Robbia reductions of Donatello's lost statue, Dovizia (Abundance), a work of about 1430 that stood on a column in the Mercato Vecchio in Florence. A child who originally grasped our Dovizia's skirt has since broken off; his feet have left an impression near the frog at right.
