The salamander is now lost while the Villano has been identified so far by critics with the statue of the so-called Mietitore attributed to Cioli and now in the Boboli garden deposits. In the 1990s, during restorations at Pratolino, a stone fragment of a male statue was found: through a careful analysis of the documentary and figurative sources as well as a close comparison with other works certainly by Cioli, this paper aims to recognize the fragment as the Villano con la falce. 2022-06-01T12:12:08Z 2022-06-01T12:12:08Z 2020 chapter ONIX_20220601_9788855181815_229 2704-5919 9788855181815 https://library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/56046 eng Studi e saggi application/pdf Attribution 4.0 International 15256.pdf https://books.fupress.com/doi/capitoli/978-88-5518-181-5_3 Firenze University Press 10.36253/978-88-5518-181-5.03 10.36253/978-88-5518-181-5.03 bf65d21a-78e5-4ba2-983a-dbfa90962870 9788855181815 212 21 Florence open access
