Anghiari
Anghiari () is a hill town and municipality (''comune'') in the Province of Arezzo, Tuscany, Italy. Bordering ''comuni'' include Arezzo (southwest), Pieve Santo Stefano (north) and Subbiano (west). History The Battle of Anghiari took place on 29 June 1440 between the Republic of Florence and the Duchy of Milan. The battle inspired a Leonardo da Vinci fresco designed for Florence's Palazzo Vecchio known as the '' Lost Leonardo''; current scholarship holds that the work was never completed. It is known from da Vinci drafts and a sketch of it by Peter Paul Rubens now in the Louvre. During World War II, the concentration camp of Renicci was located at Anghiari.
