context: Michelangelo was born in the village of Caprese near Arezzo in Tuscany and grew up in Florence, [10] which was the center of European renaissance at the time, and from its surroundings full of accomplishments of former Renaissance artists to the amazing artifacts of the Greeks, he was able to learn and draw from them a lot about sculpture And drawing. The Michelangelo family was one of the most prominent young bankers in Florence, but his father, “Ludvico de Leonardo de Bonarotti di Simone”, deviated from the rest of the family and held several government positions during his lifetime, [11] and his mother was “Francesca de Nerre del Miniato di Siena” ". [12] The Bonarotti family claimed that their sons were descended from the "Tuscan Matildi", one of Italy's ancient nobles, and although this claim is still not confirmed, Michelangelo himself was a believer in him. [13] A few months after the birth of Michelangelo, his family returned to Florence, where he spent his boy’s years, and in 1481, that is, when he was only six years old, his mother died after a long struggle with illness, so Michelangelo moved to live with the family of a man who worked in stone-mining in his town “Cetignano,” where his son owned a marble quarry and a small farm. [12] Giorgio Vasari reported that Michelangelo said: [10] Michelangelo's father, who was a judge on the town of Caprizi at the time, [14] sent his son to teacher “Francesco da Urbino” in Florence, in order to learn the grammar, [10] [ 15] However, the boy did not show a tendency towards science, but rather preferred to copy paintings in the churches, and tended to be accompanied by artists and painters. [15] In the end, the father agreed to his son's wish and allowed this thirteen-year-old boy to work for a plaster painter named Domenico Granlandio, [16] [17] and when Miquelangelo reached his fourteenth year, his father had persuaded Domenico to announce his student as a painter. [18] It is known that Michelangelo could not agree with his teacher and often clashed with him, prompting him to end his work with him after less than a year. [19] In 1489, Lorenzo de 'Medici, the de facto ruler of Florence, asked Domenico Gerlandio to send him the two best students in his custody, so the latter sent him to both Michelangelo and Francesco Granassi. [20] During the period from 1490 to 1492, Michelangelo enrolled in the human school founded by the Medici family to teach the updated Platonic philosophy, where he learned sculpture by "Bertoldo di Giovanni", and his view of life and patterns of his art were influenced by the views and theories of many known philosophers and depression at that time Such as: Marcelio Vicino, Pico della Mirandola, and Angelo Polisiano. [21] During this period, Michelangelo completed work on the inscription “Our Lady of Drawers” ​​(1490–92) and the Battle of Qanatara (1491–92), the latter being based on an idea proposed by Angelo Polisiano, and commissioned by Lorenzo de 'Medici. [22] Pertoldo de Giovanni’s admiration for his student’s admirable work created a feeling of jealousy for his Michelangelo colleague “Pietro Torigiano,” and he struck his nose with a heavy blow that distorted his shape, and this deformation is clearly visible in all the personal drawings of Michelangelo’s face. [23] Although Michelangelo's denial of Geraldayo's virtue in teaching him anything, it is clear that he learned from him the art of mural painting since his initial drawings had shown methods and approaches followed by Gerlandio. From 1490 to 1492 he spent his time at the home of the ruler Lorenzo dei Medici, known as the great Lorenzo, the most important patron and patron of the arts in Florence. Where the house was a permanent meeting place for artists, philosophers and poets. It is assumed that Michelangelo met and learned from the elderly teacher Bertoldo who had trained with Donatello, a 15th-century artist in Florence. [24]
