Michelangelo was one of the greatest artists of all time. He excelled in architecture, sculpture, painting, poetry, and engineering. He was a true Renaissance man who lived a long emotional life. In painting The Last Judgment, Michelangelo was able to incorporate all that he had learned about the human body. He was able to show the way the body moved, as well as it's displays of unrestrained passion, overwhelming grief, or endless torment. This is what makes The Last Judgment such a unique and exceptional work of art. In the spring of 1534, Michelangelo received a commission from Clement VII to paint The Last Judgment on the altar wall of the Sistine Chapel. He was also commissioned at this time to paint a Fall of the Angels on the entrance wall, but this second work was never executed. He had painted the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel some twenty eight years prior, but the style of his The Last Judgment would greatly differ from that of the ceiling. Before Michelangelo could begin, there were many preparations to be made. A scaffold had to be built and the wall had to be prepared. Five paintings by Perugino and Michelangelo had to be removed. Two windows had to be walled up and Michelangelo ordered it to be inclined forward by about half an ell toward the top, hoping in this fashion to protect his work against the accumulation of dust. (Brandes 388)

He was one of the founders of the High Renaissance and, in his later years, one of the principal exponents of Mannerism. Born at Caprese, the son of the local magistrate, his family returned to Florence soon after his birth. Michelangelo's desire to become an artist was initially opposed by his father, as to be a practising artist was then considered beneath the station of a member of the gentry. He was, however, eventually apprenticed in 1488 for a three-year term to Domenico Ghirlandaio . Later in life Michelangelo tried to suppress this apprenticeship, implying that he was largely self-taught, undoubtedly because he did not want to present himself as a product of the workshop system which carried with it the stigma of painting and sculpture being taught as crafts rather than Liberal Arts. Nevertheless, it was in Ghirlandaio's workshop that Michelangelo would have learnt the rudiments of the technique of fresco painting. Before the end of his apprenticeship, however, he transferred to the school set up by Lorenzo the Magnificent in the gardens of the Palazzo Medici. Here he would have had access to the Medici collection of antiques, as well as a certain amount of tuition from the resident master, Bertoldo di Giovanni. His work here included two marble reliefs, a

Michelangelo makes David What would you name as the most famous works of art in the world ? Think about it. Well, Leonardo's Mona Lisa is probably up there, and your next candidates might well be Michelangelo's David , and his Sistine Chapel ceiling . Amazing, isn't it? Two of the most celebrated artworks ever, made by one person. In this feature – the first of two on Michelangelo – we'll be focusing in on David , and asking two questions. How did the young Michelangelo come to make such an amazing sculpture? And why is it so famous, anyway? Young artist goes to the big city How did you get to be a top-level artist in 15th century Italy? Well, by moving from the sticks to the big city, for a start. Michelangelo Buonarotti was born around 1475, the son of a poor but aristocratic family from a village outside Florence, in central Italy. At about age eight, he was sent into Florence, to school and then, a few years later, to be an artist's apprentice. Florence was ground zero for art in the 15th century. So for someone with artistic ambitions, it was an incredible place to be – somewhat like growing up in Silicon Valley today, if you dream of becoming a dot.com-meister. Why? Because Florence in the 1400s was where the Renaissance was happening.

49. A Brief History Of Patronage By the time of his death, he had been practically raised to a level of divinity amongFlorentine artists. LINKS Patronage of michelangelo Patronage of Raphael http://www.geocities.com/rr17bb/patronage.html

Discussion of the role of patrons in the Renaissance There are three main motives for the patronage of art - piety, prestige and pleasure. Art patronage was good public relations for rulers. It became firmly institutionalized in Florentine life. As Biagioli describes it, patronage was not an "option." It was the key to social status, and, in Florence, there was an absolute social hierarchy. A career and social mobility were impossible apart from being involved in a network of patronage relationships. Patronage is most commonly associated with artists and the arts in general. In the medieval times, most patronage came from the Church but the ruling classes, the kings, princes and nobles, made up a second group of patrons. These two systems of patronage continued during the Renaissance, along with the newer systems. The leading Florentine family was the Medici. (The Medici spent money on constructing churches, encouraging art and supporting charities.) One of the Medici Popes, Leo X, was a notable patron of the arts in Rome. The social standing of the patron also benefited from the arrangement. Sponsoring several clients indicated substantial wealth and an interest in the community. Especially accomplished clients brought to their patrons added prestige. In the academic hierarchy, the most prestigious patrons tended not to identify with clients from the "lower" disciplines (mathematics and the natural sciences).

Without having seen the Sistine Chapel one can form no appreciable idea of what one man is capable of achieving. - Johann Wolfgang Goethe, Rome 1787 The Artist's View Imagine the artist, Michelangelo di Lodovico Buonarroti Simoni, working alone, suspended high above the floor in a scaffold, lying on his back, working in a difficult medium he did not particularly care for. Yet he was already famous, and was no doubt compelled by his pride, and his artistic passion, to strive for the perfection that had earned him the well-deserved sobriquet, 'divine'. Despite his discomfort, his well-known dislike of painting, and his desire to return to sculpting the figures for the tomb of Julius II, within the space of four years this incredible individual painted some 300 figures, adorning more than 5800 square feet of the St Peter's Sistine Chapel ceiling with a stunning masterwork beyond what many could achieve in a dozen lifetimes A New Perspective If you have an opportunity to view some recent reproductions, or the good fortune to view directly these newly cleaned and restored magnificent frescoes, allow your gaze to linger just a bit longer on

Main Index Michelangelo Buonarotti (1475-1564) exerted enormous influence. He, too, was universally acknowledged as a supreme artist in his own lifetime. Michelangelo resisted the paintbrush, vowing with his characteristic vehemence that his sole tool was the chisel. As a well-born Florentine, a member of the minor aristocracy, he was temperamentally resistant to coercion at any time. Only the power of the pope, tyranical by position and by nature, forced him to the Sistine and the reluctant achievement of the world's greatest single fresco.

Size: 80 x 60cm La Primavera (Sandro Botticelli 1444 -1510) Sometimes called 'Allegory of Spring', this painting is one the the most lyrical in all of Western art. It combines a pleasing tang of classical antiquity with dreamy contemporary quality. The faces and figures are drawn so masterfully that the obvious effort of fashioning them is completely hidden.

Introduction Michelangelo (1475-1564), Italian painter, sculptor, architect, and poet whose artistic accomplishments exerted a tremendous influence on his contemporaries and on subsequent European art. Michelangelo considered the male nude to be the foremost subject in art, and he explored its range of movement and expression in every medium. Even his architecture has a human aspect to it, in which a door, window, or support may refer to the face or body, or the position of architectural elements may suggest muscular tension. Michelangelo continually sought challenge, whether physical, artistic, or intellectual. He favored media that required hard physical labor—marble carving and fresco painting. In painting figures, he chose poses that were especially difficult to draw. And he gave his works several layers of meaning, by including multiple references to mythology, religion, and other subjects. His success in conquering the difficulties he set for himself is remarkable, but he left many of his works unfinished, as if he were defeated by his own ambition.
