pope julius ii

pope julius ii -lrb- ; 5 december 1443 -- 21 february 1513 -rrb- , nicknamed `` the fearsome pope '' and `` the warrior pope '' , born giuliano della rovere , was pope from 1 november 1503 to his death in 1513 .
his papacy was marked by an active foreign policy , ambitious building projects , and patronage for the arts -- he commissioned the destruction and rebuilding of st. peter 's basilica , plus michelangelo 's decoration of the ceiling of the sistine chapel .
