Sobre la escultura
Bronzes often exist in a number of versions, made over many decades or even centuries. This is achieved through a variety of means, such as changes in the wax, new moulds taken from an existing bronze or the reuse of the existing model.This group (together with inv.no. A.54-1956) are clearly based on a similar model but represent two different scenes from the Old Testament. They derive from a marble sculpture of Cain and Abel by Diogini Bussola in Milan Cathedral. In the other similar version (inv.no. A.54-1956) the figures have been adapted as Samson attacking a Philistine with the jawbone of an ass.
