Abstract

The tomb of Julius II, with which Michelangelo was commissioned in 1505, was to be a free-standing mausoleum “which in beauty and pride, richness of ornamentation, and abundance of statuary surpassed every ancient imperial tomb.”¹ This magnificent structure is known to us only through the descriptions of Michelangelo's biographers, Giorgio Vasari and Ascanio Condivi.
