 Giulio Romano
Giulio Romano, or Giulio Pippi, the head of the Roman school of painting in succession to Raphael.
The whole of this onerous undertaking was completed within a period of only three years -- which is the more remarkable as, during some part of the interval since Raphael's decease, the Fleming, Adrian VI, had been pope, and his anti-aesthetic pontificate had left art and artists almost in a state of inanition.
Giulio Romano introduced the style of Raphael into Mantua, and established there a considerable school of art, which surpassed in development that of his predecessor Andrea Mantegna, and almost rivalled that of Rome.

The mention of "that rare Italian master, Julio Romano" (5.2.99) as the sculptor/painter of the statue is especially interesting.
Romano (1492?-1546), at first an assistant to the great Renaissance artist Raphael, developed a style that achieved extreme realism by the use of visual illusion.
