Michelangelo

Michelangelo is one of the biggest reasons why I started to study art history. So to be able to see his work in person has been incredible.

I visited the Museo dell'opera del Duomo in Florence the other day, and I was very pleased with the arrangement and collection.

One of the highlights of the museum is the Florentine Pietá by Michelangelo. It's also called the Bandini Pietá and sometimes even the Deposition. Either way it's beautiful and I got so see it and draw it which was even better.

Michelangelo, Pietá Fiorentina 1547-55.
