Who was Michelangelo? Cover Image Book

Who was Michelangelo? / by Kirsten Anderson ; illustrated by Gregory Copeland.

Anderson, Kirsten, (author.). Copeland, Gregory, (illustrator.).

Summary:

"Michelangelo created some of the world's most recognizable art, from the statue of David to the intricate ceiling fresco of the Sistine Chapel. Beyond his well-known painting and sculpting, he was a gifted poet and architect. Young readers can learn about the entirety of Michelangelo's life, from his time as a young apprentice, and his relationships with several Catholic popes and the Medici family, to his unwillingness to stop working into his late eighties. A perfect read for art lovers and fans of theRenaissance."-- Provided by publisher.
