Hercules and the Horse of Diomedes

by RUSTICI, Giovanni Francesco, Terracotta

At the Villa Salviati on the outskirts of Florence, the courtyard is decorated with a series of large roundels in terracotta by Rustici, many of which are derived (like the corresponding cycle in the Palazzo Medici, Florence) from Classical sources, while several recall designs by Leonardo.
