Description:
|
|
Vasari, commissioned by Duke Cosimo I de Medici, worked as the designer with several collaborators. In 1564, the year of his election to the Florentine Accademia del Disegno, Battista (di Domenico) Lorenzi provided a figure of Painting for Michelangelo's funeral catafalque and later, for Michelangelo's tomb in Santa Croce, the portrait of Michelangelo and the figure of Sculpture (later transformed into Painting). The final figure of Sculpture was done by Valerio Cioli. The figure of Architecture was sculpted by Giovanni Bandini. The frescoes were painted by Giovanni Battista Naldini, a student of Pontormo. The monument was restored in 2017. (Source: Grove Art Online; http://www.groveart. com/)
