A few words about Michelangelo Bonarotti
Michelangelo Bonarotti (1475-1564), was an Italian cluster man - sculptor, painter, architect, engineer, poet, and one of the most prominent figures in the Italian Renaissance and art history. He completed his first sculptures before he turned 16, and when he reached the age of 21 he began to create intensely. Michelangelo's works, such as the statue of David, the frescoes in the Sistine Chapel and other works, are considered part of the pinnacle of Western art. Michelangelo was known for his melancholy and sullen nature, and therefore was not attracted to the company of people and used to be solitary. Nevertheless, Michelangelo greatly influenced many other artists who came after him, among them August Rodin And others.
