Design pour une statue équestre de Henri II de France — Histoire et analyse

En 1559, Catherine de Médicis a commandé à Michel-Ange de créer un monument avec une statue équestre pour son mari, décédé lors d'un tournoi. Cependant, cela n'a jamais été réalisé en raison de la mort de l'artiste et de l'assistant qui devait prendre en charge le travail. Ce croquis se concentre principalement sur le piédestal monumental.

Sa forme est dérivée d'un design que le grand maître avait réalisé environ cinquante ans plus tôt.
