The Equestrian Monument of Niccolò da Tolentino (1456) is a fresco painting by the early-Italian Renaissance master Andrea del Castagno, in Florence Cathedral, Italy.
On the left internal wall of the church, it is next to the earlier fresco Equestrian Statue of John Hawkwood by Paolo Uccello (1436).
The condottiero, the Italian Niccolò da Tolentino is depicted riding his horse, standing on a classical pedestal painted in geometrical perspective, and flanked by two nude men with coat of arms.
Andrea del Castagno had studied this earlier statue through drawings, never visiting its location in the city of Padua in Veneto.
The elegant hat and the flittering cloak area examples of the increasing taste for fine decorative elements in Florentine art, in contrast with the more austere fresco of John Hawkwood by Uccello completed some 30 years earlier.
