Description: 
Daniele was similarly influenced by Florentine Mannerism in other works, for example in the paintings he made for Giovanni della Casa during the 1550s. Although these works, including the David and Goliath in the Louvre, are generally derived from drawings by Michelangelo (who specifically gave Daniele preliminary sketches for David and Goliath, now in the Morgan), their polish and finish are close to the manner of Vasari and Salviati. There is another similar but less finished drawing in the Uffizi. This drawing closely matches the front side of the Louvre painting, which is painted on slate, on both sides.
