Description:
|
The cardinal died in 1610; he was a member of the powerful Aldobrandini and a nephew of Ippolito Aldobrandini (later Pope Clement VIII). He was the titular cardinal of San Pietro in Vincoli. Bizzacheri was trained as an architect, but supplied designs for architectonic and sculptural ornament. Skulls and skeletons were popular on Baroque tombs as Vanitas symbols, or Memento mori, to remind the viewer of the transitoriness of human existence.
