A 2008 laser restoration of this sculpture found that gold leaf was once used to highlight it. Currently, this piece is housed with versions of Madonna and Child by Luca Della Robbia and Lorenzo Ghiberti in a gallery at the Bargello. The helmet of one character in this work features a depiction of the Triumph of Cupid, which lends credence to the interpretation that it is representative of the primacy of sodomy in the culture in which it was created. That theory is also supported by the feather running up the inside of its central figure's leg. The title figure's toes are intertwined in the hair of his enemy, on whose decapitated head he stands. For 10 points, identify this first freestanding bronze nude since antiquity, a work by Donatello depicting the slayer of Goliath.
