There is some stylistic kinship with the bronze bust of Alfonso II d'Este, it has been attributed to Leone Leoni (1509-90) and Lodovico Lombardi (1507 / 08-75) cf. his signed imperator bust in Vaduz, the Prince of Liechtenstein's collection.  The work is incomplete, while the head must be considered fairly finished from the artist's hand, the bust itself and the associated pedestal are only chopped but not finished, the right shoulder has been broken and repaired. Ottavio Farnese (9 October 1524 – 18 September 1586) reigned as Duke of Parma and Piacenza from 1547 until his death and Duke of Castro from 1545 to 1547 and from 1553 until his death.
