Paper Summary:

This paper examines Michelangelo's contributions as a sculptor and painter as well as his work as an architect -- which remains well known -- and as a poet, which is much less well known today.

From the Paper:

"Unlike many artists who are not recognized until the very end of their careers -- or perhaps decades or centuries after their deaths -- Michelangelo was considered by his contemporaries to be the greatest living artist in his lifetime, and his reputation has been maintained ever since. There has never been a time when he was not held to be one of the greatest artists of all times and a number of his works in painting, sculpture, and architecture rank among the most famous in existence (Paoletti, 1997, p. 38). "
