Descrizione:
The sculpture was created by the workshop of the 'Maestro di Giano', a collective name for a community of Lombard sculptors who were particularly active in Genoa until the 1220s: having initially taken charge of the decoration of the parts of the Cathedral of San Lorenzo damaged in the fire of 1296, they assumed a predominant role in the city. Marble statue of a bearded man standing with his right arm raised to hold a sphere. The man is dressed in a tunic, cloak, shoes and cap; in his left hand he holds part of his robe.
