介绍（中）	这些融合雕刻的父子半身像（另见1993.332.2）无疑是佛罗伦萨巴洛克时期著名雕塑家G.B.Foggini肖像风格的最好例子。虽然伯尼尼的强烈反响可以追溯到这位年轻艺术家从罗马回来后不久，但他们已经展示了福吉尼在描绘物质财富方面的天赋，这为他赢得了美第奇宫廷雕塑家的职位。充满活力的对比：脆弱的蕾丝领带和奢华的斗篷（模仿当代法国宫廷的模式）衬托出逼真的面孔。反过来，他们提供了自己的对比研究：这位秃顶父亲威严的姿势和哈布斯堡王朝经典的面相与这位年轻人甜美、有点未成形的脸形成了对比，他被一连串疯狂的卷发淹没了。福吉尼的艺术天才开创了美第奇赞助的最后繁荣。这些半身像以生活为原型，随后是一系列描绘其他家庭成员的作品，所有这些都是为了促进这个衰落的王朝的政治抱负。他们的收购将我们的主要系列罗马巴洛克肖像半身像与该时期越来越多的令人惊叹的小规模佛罗伦萨雕塑联系起来。
介绍（英）	These meltingly carved busts of father and son (see also 1993.332.2) are surely the finest examples of the portrait style of G. B. Foggini, the leading sculptor of the Florentine Baroque. While strong echoes of Bernini date the creation of the pair to shortly after the younger artist's return from Rome, they already exhibit Foggini's talent for the depiction of material opulence that earned him the post of Medici court sculptor. Dynamic contrasts abound: the fragile lace cravats and lavish mantles (emulating modes of the contemporary French court) set off the realistically depicted faces. They in turn provide their own study in contrasts: the commanding pose and classic Habsburg physiognomy of the balding father serve as counterpoint to the sweet, somewhat unformed face of the youth, overwhelmed by a delirious cascade of curls. Foggini's artistic genius inaugurated the final flourish of Medici patronage. These busts, modeled from life, were followed by a series portraying other family members, all intended to promote the political aspirations of the fading dynasty. Their acquisition served to link our major series of Roman Baroque portrait busts to a growing collection of stunning small-scale Florentine sculptures of that period.
