The Battle of Anghiari

I chose this painting by Leonardo Da Vinci, not only for the complex details of the horses and men but, for the history behind the painting.  The Battle of Anghiari is known as "The Lost Leonardo".  It was featured in the Hall of the Five Hundred located in Palazzo Vecchio, Florence.  Many believe that it still exists under all the new modern art work but there is no evidence to show.  The simple colors are what captured my attention.
