Antonio was the son of Giovanni Bonazza, a prominent sculptor active in Padua (1654–1736), and member of a large family of sculptors. He may have been influenced by Orazio Marinali of Vicenza. Antonio is best known for his sculpture of genre themes, carved in local stone, suggesting characters from the theater for the formal gardens of Villa Ludovico Widmann at Bagnoli near Padua. His genre subjects may have influenced F. A. Bustelli’s porcelain figures produced at Nymphenburg porcelain factory.

gollark: What if we make it so that proposals are *automatically* passed when the rules state they should be, and directly patch the code of the bot?

gollark: What if we make it so that votes are done by allowing each player to set a few cells of the initial state to a complex cellular automaton, and then the output of that after a few billion steps is parsed into the result of the vote?

gollark: Wait, what if we treat passing/failing proposals as a 1D cellular automaton?

gollark: Oh, and also, pass proposal but translated to Latin, pass proposal 3 days ago, pass proposal *in* 6 days, and randomly reassign all rule numbers.
