Lorenzo dei'Medici, known as the Magnificent.
Yes, when Michelangelo was a young boy.
It is not known when Michelangelo's father died. His mother however died when Michelangelo was very young at the age of six.
Lorenzo recognized Michelangelo's artistic promise
In the garden of one of the Medici buildings in Florence there was a school for young sculptors. The very young Michelangelo often stopped there to look, was allowed to try his hand and Lorenzo saw him. After that Lorenzo often invited Michelangelo to stay with him.
Young Michelangelo was apprenticed to the Florentine painter Domenico Ghirlandaio.
A young sculptor named Torrignano was terribly jealous of Michelangelo's ability. On his part there was jealousy, and on Michelangelo's part there was anger. So jealousy and anger fought together.
No but his an allie and a good friend
We have no data whether he was good at sports or not.
No, there was not. Michelanglo is thought to have preferred young men to women.
Michelangelo never had any sisters, but he had four brothers.
You have to be very young and very, very good my friend.
Michelangelo Buonaroti lived in his parents' house in Florence. After the death of his mother when he was seven years old, Michelangelo lived with a stonecutter and his wife and family in the town of Settignano. When very young he was allowed to take part in sculptor training, and there he was noticed by Lorenzo "il Magnifico" dei Medici. Lorenzo then let young Michelangelo come and go in Lorenzo's home much as he pleased. He did not move into that house, though.
