The only painting conclusively attributed to this man, an altarpiece of the Madonna with child and saints, was completed by his student Lorenzo di Credi, and his first major commission was for the tomb of Piero and Giovanni de Medici.
The only painting conclusively attributed to this man, an altarpiece of the Madonna with child and saints, was completed by his student Lorenzo di Credi, and his first major commission was for the tomb of Piero and Giovanni de Medici. He never completed his cenotaph for Cardinal Forteguerri, but he did depict the beheading of St. John the Baptist for the silver altar in the Florence Baptistery, as well as a marble bust known as the "Lady with Primroses." This man also created the putto holding a dolphin which stands in the Palazzo Vecchio. In the mid-1470s he cast a bronze statue of a sword- wielding David with the head of Goliath, and Donatello's Gattamelatta provided the inspiration for his greatest work. For ten points, identify this sculptor of the equestrian monument of Bartolomeo Colleoni, best remembered today as the teacher of Leonardo da Vinci.
