Battle of Cascina 1505 Cartoon Private collection In the autumn of 1504 Michelangelo was given the commission to paint a battle scene for the Palazzo della Signoria as a companion piece to Leonardo's Battle of Anghiari. This grand project came to nothing: the cartoon was finished - at least in part - by February 1505, but the urgent summons from Pope Julius II prevented Michelangelo from continuing with the work, for which only some drawings survived. This picture shows a copy of the cartoon by Aristotile da San Gallo. Artist: MICHELANGELO Buonarroti Title: Battle of Cascina (part) Date: 1501-1550 Italian , graphics : historical new21/Michelangelo Buonarroti-683376.jpg Painting ID:: 62885
