  Bartolommeo Bandinelli Information
Bartolommeo (or Baccio) Bandinelli (November 12, 1493 - February 7, 1560), Florentine sculptor and painter, was the son of an eminent goldsmith, and from him Bandinelli obtained the first elements of drawing.
Bandinelli had already carved the sculpture as far as the abdomen of Hercules, when in the Sack of Rome, 1527, the pope was taken prisoner in Rome.
Bandinelli boasted that he would exceed the original, and when he was finished, after a hiatus during the pontificate of Adrian VI, the Medici Pope Clement VII could not bear to part witrh it, sent some antiquities to the King of France, and sent Baccio's Laocoon to Florence.

 Bartolommeo Bandinelli - LoveToKnow 1911
BARTOLOMMEO BANDINELLI or Baccio (1493-1560), Florentine sculptor, was the son of an eminent goldsmith, and from him Bandinelli obtained the first elements of drawing.
The ruling motive in his life seems to have been jealousy both of Benvenuto Cellini and of Michelangelo, one of whose cartoons he is said to have torn up and destroyed.
He is regarded by some as inferior in sculpture only to Michelangelo, with whom a comparison unfavourable to Bandinelli is tempted in such works as the marble colossal group of Hercules and Cacus in the Piazza del Gran Duco, and the group of Adam and Eve in the Bargello.
