介绍（中）	这个被奴役的非洲人的折磨形象来自彼得罗·塔卡（Pietro Tacca）在里窝那的十六世纪纪念碑，被称为"四个摩尔人"（I Quattro Mori），纪念美第奇在十六世纪后期战胜奥斯曼帝国。雕塑家对基座底部的四个厨房奴隶的同情描绘在 1626 年左右完工后，即使在美第奇家族失去对港口城市的权力之后，也让观众着迷。较小的人物随后被改编并转化为青铜和瓷器版本，包括Doccia的例子。这件作品可能是以朱塞佩·皮亚蒙蒂尼（Giuseppe Piamontini）在十八世纪末的模型制作的，显然受到塔卡的启发。与里窝那原始纪念碑的胜利主义言论相去甚远，这个引人注目的瓷器人物预示着跨大西洋奴隶贸易的物理恐怖，因为随着废奴运动的建立，将奢侈品和乐趣带到欧洲的非凡人力成本变得越来越明显。
介绍（英）	This tortured figure of an enslaved African man derives from Pietro Tacca’s sixteenth-century monument known as the "Four Moors" (I Quattro Mori), in Livorno, which commemorated Medici triumphs over the Ottomans in the late sixteenth century. The sculptor’s sympathetic portrayal of four galley slaves at the base of the pedestal mesmerized viewers after its completion around 1626, even after the Medici lost power over the port city. Smaller figures were subsequently adapted and transformed into bronze and porcelain versions, including examples by Doccia. This piece, possibly made after a model by Giuseppe Piamontini at the end of the eighteenth century, is clearly inspired by Tacca. Far removed from the triumphalist rhetoric of the original monument in Livorno, this arresting porcelain figure foregrounds the physical horrors of the Transatlantic Slave Trade, as the extraordinary human cost of bringing luxury commodities and pleasures to Europe became increasingly visible with the establishment of the abolitionist movement.
