When I was young I read a book called the Agony and the Ecstasy which changed my life. I have recently bought it to read again. What am amazing person Michelangelo was.
It ain’t a bad movie starring Charlton Heston and Rex Harrison.
A battle of giants of that time portrayed by giants of our time.
They made a movie of it in 1964. They could not possibly ever have replicated the story in dramatization, but I purchased the DVD anyhow.
Michelangelo was a remarkable person and that is evident by just what he left behind.
Imagine, staring at stone or marble for days watching how it reflects sunlight and tolerates the impact of Light, before even approaching it with chisels and hammer. So freaking cool.
