All of these depicted frankly minor actions where Florence had defeated neighbouring cities, but important battles from distant history were equally popular. Andrea Mantegna's "Triumphs of Caesar" shows the Roman triumphal parade of Julius Caesar, though concentrating on the booty rather than the army following it; the print series "Triumphs of Maximilian" shows both, leading up to Maximilian II, Holy Roman Emperor riding on a huge carriage. "The Battle of the Milvian Bridge" by Giulio Romano brought a huge and "seminal" battle scene into the Raphael Rooms in the Vatican Palace. The unusual "The Battle of Alexander at Issus" (1528–9) by Albrecht Altdorfer managed to make one of the most highly regarded Renaissance battle scenes, despite, or perhaps because of, having a vertical format, which was dictated by the planned setting; it was commissioned as one of a set of eight battle paintings by various artists. "It was the most detailed and panoramic battle picture of its day", and its aerial viewpoint was to be very widely followed over the next centuries, though rarely to such dramatic effect.
