Giambologna was an Italian sculptor known for his Mannerist style. He was born in Douai, Flanders (now in France) and trained in Antwerp before moving to Italy in 1550. He worked in Florence for most of his career, producing many important works for the Medici family. Giambologna's most famous sculptures include Mercury (also known as Flying Mercury), The Rape of the Sabine Women and Samson Slaying a Philistine. These works are characterised by their exaggerated poses, intricate details and dynamic compositions. Giambologna was also known for his ability to create bronze sculptures, which were highly valued during the Renaissance. His works can be found in many museums and public spaces around the world, including the Uffizi Gallery in Florence, the Louvre in Paris, and the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C.
