The ''Battle of Cascina'' (Part) is a renowned artwork by the Italian High Renaissance master Michelangelo Buonarroti, conceived in 1504 and commenced in 1505, though it remains unfinished. Commissioned by Piero Soderini, the then-gonfaloniere of the Republic of Florence, the fresco was intended to decorate a wall of the Sala del Gran Consiglio (Great Council Hall) in the Palazzo Vecchio, Florence, opposite Leonardo da Vinci's ''The Battle of Anghiari''. Both works were meant to commemorate Florentine military victories; Michelangelo's ''Battle of Cascina'' was to celebrate the triumph of the Florentines over the Pisans at the battle of the same name in 1364.

Michelangelo's original plan for the ''Battle of Cascina'' depicted a scene of intense dynamism and drama, showcasing the moment when Florentine soldiers, surprised while bathing in the Arno River by a sudden Pisan attack, scramble to arm themselves and join the fray. The work is known only through copies, as the original cartoon, or full-scale preliminary drawing, was destroyed during the 16th century. The most famous of these copies is by the artist Aristotile da Sangallo, which provides a key insight into Michelangelo's design for the composition.

Although the fresco itself was never executed, the surviving studies and copies reflect Michelangelo's innovative approach to the representation of the human body in various states of action, tension, and response. His focus on the anatomy and the emotional intensity of the figures marks a significant moment in the development of Western art and prefigures the mature style that would later be seen in his work on the Sistine Chapel ceiling.

The ''Battle of Cascina'' (Part) is often discussed in art historical literature as an exemplar of unfulfilled artistic ambition and as a poignant reminder of the rivalry between two of the greatest artists of the Renaissance, Michelangelo and Leonardo da Vinci. Despite its incomplete state, the work's influence extends beyond its time, contributing to the study of anatomy, the development of narrative in art, and the evolution of dynamic composition.
