Giovanni Battista Foggini, a renowned Italian sculptor and artist from the 17th to 18th century, left an indelible mark on the world of art with his exquisite creations. One of his notable works is the Sepulchre of Galileo Galilei, located in the left aisle and crafted between 1734-37. This masterpiece showcases Foggini's exceptional talent in capturing intricate details and emotions. Another remarkable piece attributed to Foggini is the "Bust of Ferdinando II De Medici, " part of Franco Maria Ricci Art Collection at Fontanellato's Labirinto della Masone. Carved meticulously out of marble, this sculpture exemplifies Foggini's ability to breathe life into stone. Foggini's expertise extended beyond sculptures as seen in Doccia Porcelain Factory's creation titled "The Rape of Orithyia by Boreas. " Produced around 1745, this porcelain artwork reflects Foggini's versatility as an artist who could seamlessly transition between different mediums. His artistic prowess can also be witnessed in the breathtaking sculptures adorning the Feroni chapel. These captivating pieces were intricately designed by Giovanni Battista Foggini himself during his lifetime (1652-1725), showcasing his mastery over form and composition. In addition to these monumental works, there are numerous sketches and designs attributed to Foggini that provide insight into his creative process. From a detailed study of a stallion to intricate designs featuring dolphins, dragons, pedestals, frames, and more - each piece demonstrates his meticulous attention to detail, truly a visionary artist whose contributions continue to inspire generations. His legacy lives on through these magnificent artworks that showcase not only technical brilliance but also evoke profound emotions within viewers.
