The last name of the artist in the header needs a "u": Pollaiuolo. Sorry, I couldn't figure out how to change this . . . — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.33.6.191 (talk) 04:49, 20 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

... that the only papal tombs to survive the demolition of Old St Peter's and be reconstructed in the present St Peter's Basilica are the two by Antonio del Pollaiuolo? Source: Ettlinger, L.

Overall: @Johnbod: Good article. Though, "His main contribution to Florentine painting lay in his analysis of the human body in movement or under conditions of strain, but he is also important for his pioneering interest in landscape. His students might have included Sandro Botticelli." needs to be cited. Onegreatjoke (talk) 19:11, 12 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, done that - I dropped Botticelli as it's rather tenuous. Johnbod (talk) 02:33, 13 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- something needs citing
