Michelangelo would like to sculpt the funeral monument of Julius II, but the pontiff commissioned him to paint the frescoes in the Sistine Chapel. Michelangelo escaped to Florence and Bologna, in the tent of his armed opponent, finally allowing him to take on the enterprise. Dramatic events follow one another, such as the death of Julius II, the descent of Charles V, the siege of the Lanzichenecchi. Michelangelo, although devoted to the Medici, puts himself at the service of the Republic. Having laid down his arms after the pardon of Clement VII, he places his hands on the sculpture. |
