Pierre Le Gros
Pendants may be the work of a single artist or of two artists, who in some instances might be in competition with one another. An example of the latter case is the pairing of the marble groups "The Triumph of Faith over Idolatry" by Jean-Baptiste Théodon and "Religion Overthrowing Heresy and Hatred" by Pierre Le Gros the Younger on the "Altar of Saint Ignatius of Loyola" (1695–1697/98), in the Church of the Gesù, Rome.
