Michelangelo

Primarily a sculptor, Michelangelo is equally celebrated for the Sistine Chapel ceiling — one of the greatest achievements in Western art — painted for Pope Julius II between 1508 and 1512. Born in Tuscany, he worked between Florence and Rome across a career of over seventy years, serving nine successive popes.
