Robert Schoen “is convinced Michelangelo created the Marcialla fresco after his return from Bologna in December 1495, inspired by Giotto’s Deposition fresco in the Scrovegni Chapel.” He “has pored through Michelangelo studies and found corroborating views expressed by a well-known Italian cultural critic, Roberto Weiss, in 1949.” Lynn Catterson finds it “extremely interesting.”
