介绍（中）	这群人自由复制了一块在文艺复兴时期备受推崇的古代大理石，现在存放在佛罗伦萨的皮蒂宫，这是庇护四世送给美第奇的礼物，从梵蒂冈丽城运来的。安太斯的头部和右臂，以及两个巨人的腿都不见了。[1] 在修复完成之前，艺术家们可以自由地根据自己的喜好重建这个群体。我们的青铜主义者的一个灾难性的创新是将安太斯的手放在生殖器周围，这一姿势与文艺复兴时期对古典艺术的崇敬不一致这种实心铸件的技术以一种无所不知的方式研究了佛罗伦萨四重奏的顽强、基本的方法。到处都是无情但不知情的锤击。浇口的末端没有填充，以增加"纹理"。锋利的折痕描绘了一些肉褶，但金属并没有从相邻的区域被干净地赶走，比如下垂的安太斯背部和大力神右肩顶部之间的区域。苏富比拍卖行的青铜委托人显然持有Leo Planiscig的证书，提出将其错误地归属于Francesco da Sant‘Agata -JDD 脚注。Haskell和Penny 1981年，第232–34页。
介绍（英）	The group freely copies an ancient marble much admired in the Renaissance, now in the Palazzo Pitti, Florence, which arrived from the Vatican Belvedere as a gift from Pius IV to the Medici. The head and right arm of Antaeus and the legs of both giants were then missing.[1] Until restorations were carried out, artists felt free to reconstruct the group according to their own fancy. A disastrous innovation on the part of our bronzista was to position Antaeus’s hands around his genitals, a gesture at odds with the Renaissance veneration of classical antiquity. The technique of this solid cast investigates the hardy, rudimentary methods of the Florentine quattrocento but in an all-too-knowing manner. There is relentless but uninformed hammering all over. The ends of sprues are left unfiled for added “texture.” Sharp creases delineate some of the flesh folds, but the metal has not been chased away cleanly from adjoining areas, such as that between the back of the sagging Antaeus and the top of Hercules’s right shoulder. The consignor of the bronze to Sotheby’s apparently had a certificate from Leo Planiscig, proposing a wrong attribution to Francesco da Sant’Agata. -JDD Footnotes (For key to shortened references see bibliography in Allen, Italian Renaissance and Baroque Bronzes in The Metropolitan Museum of Art.
