A TIRELESS CREATOR


Michelangelo has done it again!

Michelangelo does not rest! After Bacchos (1496/97), the great Michelangelo has created “David” (1501/04), it seems a symbol of the defence of civil liberties. Both are located in Florence. Now he presents Moses, in Rome, which is thoroughly carved with white marble. "Moses" could be one of the most important works that Michelangelo has ever done! This had been built for the tomb of Julius Pope in Saint Peter’s basilica but now it is being moved to Saint Pietro’s Church for unknown reasons.

But this never ends! The author shows at the world his first works as architect with the “Basilica of San Lawrence”, which is also in Florence; it is one of the largest churches of the town and Placed in the downtown.

In addition, he is becoming to be acknowledged by his paintings, such as “The Entombment “ and “The battle of Cascina”. Actually he is ending  “The creation of  Adam”.

This is the life of a genius, he is always creating something...Painting, designing buildings, drawing, carving sculptures, writing poetry...What will be the next thing?
