Michelangelo Buonarotti lived in the time of the turbulent Renaissance, the years of poisoning princes, warring popes, the powerful Medici family, and the fanatic monk Savonarola. Working with a God-driven fury he created David, painted the Sistine ceiling, and was the architect of the dome of St Peter's.
