Étude pour une statue équestre

early to mid 1480s
Not on view
Ce dessin très abouti de Pollaiuolo, sculpteur, peintre, graveur et orfèvre florentin, est vraisemblablement une étude pour une statue de bronze de Francesco Sforza, présenté à son fils, Ludovico Sforza, duc de Milan. Au XVIe siècle, le dessin a appartenu à Giorgio Vasari, historien et peintre, qui l’a décrit dans ses Vies des artistes (1568). Il a probablement ajouté le lavis brun qui entoure les figures.
