“I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free.”
Michelangelo (full name Michelangelo di Lodovico Buonarroti Simoni) (March 6, 1475 – February 18, 1564) was a Renaissance sculptor, architect, painter, and poet.
For Michelangelo, the job of the sculptor is to free the forms that, he believed, were already inside the stone.
