For Michelangelo, Raffaello da Montelupo carved the statue of St Damian for the New Sacristy in San Lorenzo, Florence. The marble group in the New Sacristy consists of a Madonna and Child and the Medici patron saints Cosmas and Damian. The Madonna is completely by Michelangelo's own hand; the saints are the work of pupils \(Montorsoli and Montelupo\) after models by the master. ## Related artworks - [A sheet of studies \(recto\)]() - [Adoration of the Magi]() - [Adoration of the Magi]() - [Archangel Michael]() - [Archangel Michael]() - [Birth of the Virgin]() - [Crucifix]() - [Elijah]() - [Madonna and Child]() - [Medici Madonna, between Sts Cosmas and Damian]() - [St Damian]() - [The Visitation]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
