Pietro Baratta (1659–1729) (17th century) was an Italian sculptor of the Baroque period, active in Venice. He was master of the sculptor Francesco Robba. ==Biography== Born in Carrara, Tuscany, he worked in Venice and Udine, at the villas on the mainland and as a landscape architect. He was the nephew of the sculptor Francesco Baratta the elder (1590–1666), who had worked in Rome in the studio of Bernini. Even his two brothers, Francesco and Giovanni, were sculptors. He had his own studio in which many trainees, including the sculptor Francesco Robba, apprenticed. He also had many orders from abroad: for the baroque gardens of St. Petersburg Pietro Baratta and his workshop executed a series of allegorical sculptures, many of which have been preserved, including a sculpture of "Andromeda", a "Allegory of Architecture" and busts including the "Allegory of Winter", the "Allegory of Spring" and others. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Pietro Baratta」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
