Valerio Cioli's 1560 statue in Florence's Boboli Gardens. It shows Pietro Barbino, Cosimo I's court jestor, as Bacchus.

In the '70s I owned a chalkware version of this fella. About 6" ~~ Some of you will remember seeing him around my place, then. Lost him in a move, and have never been able to replace him. Nor did I have any idea of his lofty history. . . . I just knew, for reasons unknown, I loved him. Losing him was heartbreaking. I've missed him. Welcome back, Pietro.
