Publisher's summary

The ingenious artist we know as Michelangelo lived during the Renaissance in Northern Italy, and you could say that he was indeed a Renaissance man - he was a painter, sculptor, poet, and engineer all rolled up into one. Even though it has been some 450 years since his passing, his legacy remains one of the strongest on record. If the burgeoning art student of today wishes to learn from the best, he takes his notes directly from Michelangelo.

Inside you will hear about:

  • Humble Beginnings
  • Michelangelo Meets the Medicis
  • Fist Fights and Dissections
  • Rivalry with Leonardo da Vinci
  • The Year of Atrocities
  • Last Days and Death
  • And much more!

He lived for his art, and despite the chaos of kings, popes, and the civil government around him, Michelangelo Buonarroti made sure that his works of artistic expression would withstand the scrutiny of time. In this audiobook you will get to learn more about the incredible personality behind the brushstrokes and caresses of clay. Here you will find the full panoramic display and showcasing of a masterful artist’s life well lived.

Fun read!

What a fun, clear audio book. I learned some new things about one of my favorite artists and persons. Easy to listen to with excellent ready. The biography had little bias, unlike other sources like the venerable Versari.
