Prospero Spani (16 February 1516 – 25 May 1584)〔Dates quoted by Grove Encyclopedia〕 was an Italian sculptor of the Renaissance, active mainly in the Province of Reggio Emilia. He is variously known as Prospero Clementi or Prospero Clemente or il Clemente. Vasari claimed he was Modenese.〔Vasari and Foster〕 ==Biography== Spani was born and died in Reggio Emilia. He initially trained with his grandfather, Bartolommeo Clementi, and then apprenticed with Antonio Begarelli. He soon modeled much of his work after the mannerist style of Michelangelo. The ''Funeral Monument for the blessed Bernardo degli Uberti'' (1544) in the Cathedral of Parma is his first work. He also completed some works for the Prati family in Parma. In the church of San Andrea in Mantua, he sculpted a monument for the Bishop Andreossi (Andreasi) (1549), with a sphinx and bronze swan, flanked by sculptures of ''Faith'' and ''Charity'' . He also worked for the Cathedral of Carpi and the church of San Domenico in Bologna. He was prolific in his native Reggio Emilia, where he left in a bronze tabernacle; and a monument of Bishop Rangone (Rangoni) in 1567, for which, after five years, he was handsomely paid 1250 gold scudi. He complete a monument for Bishop Filippo Zoboli (1554) in San Nicolò of Reggio Emilia, which is flanked by grieving maidens. Algarotti extolled him as the "''Coreggio of sculpture''".〔Boni, page 228〕 William Waters, less kindly, called his works "''some of the worst sculpture of the time..monstrous..and absurdity''".〔Waters, Page 212-213〕 For the Cathedral of Reggio Emilia, he completed a ''Christ with the Cross'' and statues of ''St Grisanto and St Daria'' outside west door, while over the main portal, he had statues of a recumbant ''Adam and Eve'' (1552–1557). He also completed statues of ''Lepidus and Hercules'' at Modena, the statue of ''St Procolo'' for the Volta tomb at Bologna, and a recumbent Figure of Alberto Pio del Carpi in the Louvre.〔Waters, Page 212-213〕
