The picture shows the statue of the Emperor, ## Related artworks - [An Angel holding a curtain]() - [An Angel holding a curtain]() - [Angel]() - [Anjou tombs]() - [Caryatid]() - [Charity]() - [Charity]() - [Fragments from the Baptistery]() - [Head of St John the Baptist]() - [Head of St John the Baptist]() - [Madonna and Child \(detail\)]() - [Madonna and Child]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
