Design for a Freestanding Tomb Seen in Elevation and Plan 1530-35 Antonio da Sangallo, the Younger Italian This drawing was rediscovered and sold at auction in 1998, together with three other tomb designs, all four sheets dating to the 1530s; their attribution and subject matter were confirmed by Christoph Luitpold Frommel in the sales catalogue. The intended final projects with which the three other sheets were connected are less securely known than is true of the present sheet, which renders the intended project with great clarity of design and in a relatively finished conception. The present drawing depicts the effigy of a bearded pope and on the lower part of the podium includes the papal tiara with crossed keys over the Medici familys coat of arms -- the six balls, or palle -- which readily identifies the funerary monument as that of Clement VII de Medici (1478-1534), elected pope on November 19, 1523. This detailed modello, or demonstration drawing, may be compared to Michelan
