If we think of Anghiari, located in the so-called Valtiberina Toscana, probably the first thing coming to mind is the famous battle that took place in this picturesque village between the troops of Florence and those of Milan. To make this historical event of 1440 known was Leonardo da Vinci, who dedicated his painting, now unfortunately lost, to the bloody clash. What remains, fortunately, is the copy executed by Paul Rubens, fairly faithfully reproducing Da Vinci's original idea.

In the small town in the Arezzo province, the lost work of art is of such great importance that, inside the Palazzo della Battaglia, it was founded the Museum of the Battle and Anghiari!
