The Renaissance Bazaar: From the Silk Road to
Michelangelo

BUONARROTI MICHELANGELO
(1475-1564) Born into a wealthy Florentine
family, Michelangelo is one of the most famous figures of the Renaissance
period, known to be an unsociable ‘genius’, immersed in his work. The Pietà
is one of Michelangelo’s most famous statues, an expressive and moving
representation of a full-grown man lying in the lap of a distraught woman,
and it is this beautiful sculpture that established the young artist in
Rome. He returned to Florence to build on his reputation, creating such
sculptures as David (1504) and paintings and frescos of immense scale and
beauty. Most notable is the fresco on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, a
painstaking ordeal which took 4 arduous years to complete. The last thirty
years of Michelangelo’s life was devoted to architecture, and in this field
as well as sculpture, and painting, his reputation as one of the most
influential artist of all time remains firm. |
