ชีวประวัติ:

Pietro Baratta was an Italian sculptor of the Baroque period, born in Carrara, Italy in 1659 and died in 1729. He was active in Venice and Udine, and was the nephew of the sculptor Francesco Baratta the elder. He had his own studio where he trained many apprentices, including the sculptor Francesco Robba. He had many orders from abroad, including for the baroque gardens of St. Petersburg, where he executed a series of allegorical sculptures. He is responsible for the sculptures in the facade of the Villa Manin's Chapel at Passariano di Codroipo (Udine), and is the probable author of five statues on the facade of the Church of Santa Maria at Villa Vicentina (VI).
