Among his most famous works are mercury (of which he has made four versions), he is depicted wearing a winged petase on the head.
He carries the caducée in his hand, the stick he received from Apollo, which became the symbol of the practice of medicine. The god raises an arm towards heaven, in a gesture borrowed from the repertoire of classical rhetoric characteristic of the giambologna maniera. The quality of this refined art is rarely found in the recast bronzes.
