Her facial expression exudes determination and strength as she prepares to carry out her heroic act. The intricate details captured in this photograph highlight the artist's ability to convey emotion and depth through his work. The sculpture belongs to the Early Renaissance period, showcasing Donatello's profound influence on European art during this time.
