dc.descriptionView of the frescoed apex of the tomb from which the frescoed curtain drapery emerges; Vasari worked 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 catafalque and for Michelangelo's tomb in Santa Croce, Florence, the portrait of Michelangelo and the figure of Sculpture (later transformed into Painting). His terracotta model for Sculpture (London, V&A) differs considerably from the final more complex and monumental figure (completed 1574).
