Michelangelo Buonarroti
1475-1564
Michelangelo was an artist and sculptor, which is much like describing
Galileo as a scientist. It is truth in both cases but totally misses
the brilliance of their talent. It is an interesting fact that the
year of Michelangelo’s death was the year of Galileo’s
birth. Both men were very dependent on the patronage of the Medici.
The first link below is a good introduction to Michelangelo, his
work and life. The second link will show you some of Michelangelo’s
work in the Bargello Museum.
