The sculpture was commissioned as a pendant of Michelangelo's work in the Sala dei Cinquecento, to simbolize Florence's conquest over Pisa. First made in plaster and then in marble (this version is now at the Bargello National Museum) shows a female figure in the act of subjecting an old, bearded man. Photo: Simone Lampredi
