possible early work by
Michelangelo, in your opinion? Please cite visual evidence (i.e., comparison
to other works by M.) to primarily support your claim;
you may also cite other evidence (such as art historians’
arguments, provenance, etc.) that has been published
(use Google Scholar, or JSTOR). Two pages max (can type or
handwrite). You do not have to give extensive background on
the
piece; concentrate on your argument pro/con.
