''The Battle of Cascina, or The Bathers,'' after Michelangelo (1475-1564), is a notable artwork created in 1542 by Aristotile da Sangallo, an Italian painter and architect of the Renaissance period. This work is a significant piece as it represents a lost original by Michelangelo Buonarroti, which was intended to be a fresco for the Palazzo Vecchio in Florence, depicting a historic Florentine military victory at the Battle of Cascina in 1364. Michelangelo's original cartoon, or full-scale preliminary drawing, was highly praised for its innovative composition and dynamic portrayal of the human figure but was unfortunately destroyed during the 16th century.

Aristotile da Sangallo's version, often referred to as a copy, is invaluable as it provides a glimpse into Michelangelo's original concept. Sangallo's work captures a moment of surprise as the soldiers, who were bathing in the Arno River, scramble to arm themselves following the unexpected alarm of an enemy attack. The artwork is celebrated for its masterful depiction of the nude figures, showcasing a variety of poses and the anatomical expertise that Michelangelo was renowned for.

While Sangallo's rendition is not the only surviving copy of Michelangelo's lost cartoon, it is one of the most detailed and faithful to the original design. The piece stands as a testament to the enduring influence of Michelangelo's artistry and is an important reference for scholars studying the High Renaissance style and the development of figure composition in Western art.

Today, Aristotile da Sangallo's ''The Battle of Cascina, or The Bathers'' is housed in the collection of the Holkham Hall in Norfolk, England, offering art historians and the public an opportunity to connect with a pivotal work that bridges the legacies of two Renaissance masters.
