Daniele Ricciarelli (Italian:; c. 1509 – 4 April 1566), better known as Daniele da Volterra (, Italian: ), was a Mannerist Italian painter and sculptor. He is best remembered for his association with Michelangelo. Several of Daniele's most important works were based on designs made for that purpose by Michelangelo.
After Michelangelo's death, Daniele was hired to cover the genitals in his Last Judgment with vestments and loincloths. This earned him the nickname Il Braghettone ("the breeches maker").
