Michelangelo di Lodovico Buonarroti Simoni (1475-1564), was a famous Italian Renaissance sculptor, painter, architect, and poet who had a remarkable influence on the development of Western art.
Michelangelo was born in Florence, to a family that belonged to minor nobility. Sadly, they lost their status by the time the sculptor was born. Even though going from nobility to creating art was considered a downward social step, Michelangelo became an apprentice to a well-known painter named Domenico Ghirlandaio. Later on, he went to study sculpture in the gardens of the influential Medici family.
Unlike
many other artists that received their laurels post-mortem, Michelangelo was
considered the greatest living artist in his lifetime. In fact, his career was
so well documented at the time that he was the first artist who had a biography
published while he was alive.
Of course, he remains one of the greatest art creators of all times. His work consisted of vast and ambitious projects -- the frescoes on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, David and Pieta are just a few examples of Michelangelo’s unparalleled talent.
