Male Saint c. 1500

This gilded bronze relief sculpture, "Male Saint," was created by Francesco Marti around 1500. The piece, measuring 8.4 x 6.2 cm, depicts a saint in high relief, with detailed drapery and a flowing cloak. The artist captures the saint's contemplative pose, highlighting his serene features and flowing hair. This small-scale work exemplifies the artistic mastery of Francesco Marti, a notable sculptor of the early 16th century.
