What was the most important event in Michelangelo's life?

Answer 1

Growing up in the Renaissance era was enough for anyone to find a love for all things artistic. People like Caravaggio, da Vinci and Verocchio all walked around, or in Carvaggio's case - ran - and these people were influential, they influenced and inspired other wannabe artists. Michelangelo was more or less born into the world of sculpture, growing up near a marble quarry where he sought the company of many aspiring artists and learned to make figures with stone and chisel. From there, he learned the skills and ways of drawing and the art of portraying something or someone in all their glory. He never really painted, unless commissioned to do as as he did in fact know how. He was forced to paint, and he did it with all the complaints of an Italian genius who usually hammered his way through tons of marble. In his 20's he began The Pieta, he was 25. This sculpture, depicting Mary holding the lifeless body of her son, was to become a huge success in the art world, and so it - even now - centuries later it looks as beautiful. Everything went uphill for him there. The little boy who loved to draw, ended up being in the run for an achievement so great it rivalled the genius of Leonardo da vinci - to become the greatest Italian artist of the time. Scratch that - the greatest artist to have ever lived. . .
