Agostino Busti known as
Il Bambaja Gaston de Foix
With Bambaja a new taste for decorative classicism took hold. In the image of the young nephew of Louis XII, that subtle and graceful formalism is expressed in the rhythmic cadence that governs the placing of the figure in a play of verticals and curves within the hollow of the funeral bed, all traversed by the flowing pleats of the cloth, in a ductile material.
