Lionardo, Buonarroto, Giovansimone and Gismondo were Michelangelo's 4 brothers he was the 2nd oldest out of the 4 of them. He lived with his 4 brothers and his father and Mother until he was six then unfortunately his mother passed away. From the age of 13 Michelangelo discovered that he was amazing at art, his father strongly disagreed. His father tried everything to stop him becoming and artist but Michelangelo's dream went on. When Michelangelo was 17 the pope became his patron, a patron is someone who gives you money to do your art, because in those days artist did not earn a lot of money. Michelangelo panted and created many pieces of art two very famous ones are the David a sculptured piece of work and the other was the ceiling of the Sistine chapel, he spent 4 years painting that. Michelangelo is an excellent artist who is very popular in Italy therefore the only pieces of his work in Britain is two unfinished paintings that are available to see in the national gallery. ratz stew
