## Commentary

The difference in the characterization of the figures of the equestrian statues is borne out by the reliefs beneath; those on the statue of Ranuccio Farnese are allegories of good government and peace, while those on the statue of Alessandro Farnese illustrate military scenes. The picture shows one of the two reliefs on the statue of Alessandro Farnese.
