This relief of Michelangelo, representing the Virgin and Child with Saint John the Baptist, known as Pitti Tondo, was executed for Bartolommeo Pitti, nephew of the Florentine chancellor, Luca Pitti (1395–1472). The artist seem to have been worked on this unfinished relief between 1504–1507. The Museum purchased the plaster cast of the Pitti Tondo in 1906 from Berlin, and the copy was exhibited in the Michelangelo Room in 1909. This plaster cast is installed in Kecskemét at the House of Science and Technology since 1976, together with other fourteen plaster casts after Michelangelo’s statues.
