Best Answer

The famous Pietà by Michelangelo is a sculpture, not a painting. However, a painting of the Pietà that was thought to be the work of one of Michelangelo's students was identified as one of his own in 2010. Art historians Antonio and Maria Forcellino presented research that attributed the panels to the master, basing their conclusions on technical research and on an analysis of Michelangelo's circle of friends in the 1530's and 1540's.
