Details

Italian ironsmith. He was praised by Vasari as the best of ironsmiths. His nickname, Il Caparra, ("payment in advance") presumably refers to his financial arrangements. His finest work is mounted on the exterior of the Palazzo Strozzi in Florence and includes a lantern shaped like a temple and flag-pole holders decorated with fabulous creatures. //
