Why did michelangelo's father object to his son becoming an artist?

He liked sculpture better than drawings and paintings. However, he was fortunate enough to study under great teachers. Ghirlandio, I think ,was his name. Also, He studied people in the morgue which was prohibited. In return for this privilege he sculpted a resurrection scene and gave it to them..
On a deeper level, he became what he was inside. In other words, he was a sculptor and artist inside. The Popes made him do paintings, drawings, plans, and the Sistine Chapel which was difficult physically and took seven years I think.
His contemporaries were Raphael and Leonardo da vinci.
Florence was having a "rennaissance" .
During his time he was generally acknowledged to be the best in the world and he had fame. I hope this helps!

∙ 12y agoMichelangelo's father was a petty con-artist that got his family into severe debt. It was only when Michelangelo was commissioned to paint the Sistine chapel for the pope that he earned enough money to pay off his fathers debts.

∙ 12y agoWhen Michaelangelo was six years old, his mother died. His father enrolled him in a buisness school, but at the age of 13, he met a student of the painter Domenico Ghirlandaio. He decided to apprentice for the painter, but this decision would forever separate Michaelangelo and his father. His dad wanted him to be a respectable merchant, but Michaelangelo risked the family name and social standing in Florentine society by becoming an artist. This career was looked down upon, because it required manual labor. So, in short, no. His mom was dead and his dad never talked to him after Michaelangelo became an artist.
Hope I helped!

Who performs tricks using sleight of hand?
A sleight of hand artist differs from a magician in that a magician constructs illusions using special, custom-made props (hats with a false panel, fake flower bouquet, etc...) . A sleight of hand artist, however, uses ordinary objects (book of matches, pack of sugar, a coin...), often whatever is lying around to perform tricks, using misdirection to get the audience to look in the wrong place, leaving the artist to conceal his true movements. He then produces the object in a place or state unexpected.That would be a sleight of hand artist.
