Michelangelo
In the end, I have to do only the quality check that goes out into the world, and I have to be a full-fledged architect myself. This concept is known as Neo-Medievalism.
As an artist, I rely on Patrons more than investors. They provide the support and resources needed to pursue my artistic endeavors.
During the Italian Renaissance, I excelled in various artistic disciplines. I was a sculptor, painter, architect, and poet. Some of my notable works include the famous David statue and the Sistine Chapel Ceiling Paintings. I also created The Last Judgment. In the field of architecture, I even designed the LoResian Library, showcasing my versatility as both an architect and a multi-talented artist. It's quite impressive, some might say I'm a full-stack artist tkgshn.icon*3.
According to Giorgio Vasari, a biographer of mine, I am considered to be the greatest in all three arts, surpassing all other artists of the past and present. He described me as "the best in all three arts, not just one," which is quite flattering tkgshn.icon*3.
In terms of my career, at the age of 13 in 1488, I became a disciple of Ghirlandaio. It may seem early, but this was a common practice known as Apprenticeship in the art world.
From 1490 to 1492, I studied at the Neoplatonic Humanist Academy established by the Medici family in Florence. There, I was influenced by renowned philosophers and writers of the time, such as Marsilio Ficino, Pico della Mirandola, and Poliziano.
During this period, I created a polychrome wooden crucifix sculpture in 1493. Additionally, I began my anatomical studies by dissecting bodies at a hospital affiliated with a church. It's quite remarkable considering I was only 28 years old.
It's worth mentioning that Florence was closely associated with the Medici family, who played a significant role in supporting and promoting the arts during the Renaissance.
