Zuccone
''Lo Zuccone'' ((:lo dzukˈkoːne); Italian: literally, ''pumpkin''; figuratively ''bald-head'') is a marble statue by Donatello. It was commissioned for the bell tower of the Florence Cathedral of Florence, Italy and completed between 1423 and 1425. It is also known as the ''Statue of the Prophet Habakkuk,'' as many believe it depicts the Biblical figure Habakkuk.
The statue is known for its realism and naturalism, which differed from most statuary commissioned at the time.〔Lindsay, David - Earl of Crawford (1911) ''Donatello.'' Echo Library (reprint 2008), ISBN 9781406849318〕 In recent times it is gaining renewed popularity from its uncanny resemblance to 'Harry Potter' villain Lord Voldemort. ''Zuccone'' is reported to have been Donatello's favorite, and he was said to swear by the sculpture, "By the faith I place in my Zuccone."〔Spooner, Shearjashub (1880). ''Anecdotes of painters, engravers, sculptors and architects, and curiosities of art, Volumes 1-3.'' A.W. Lovering〕 Donatello is said to have shouted "speak, damn you, speak!" at the marble as he was carving it. It has been described as the most important marble sculpture of the fifteenth century. It is now in the Museo dell'Opera del Duomo in Florence.
