1478: Great Florentine Artist
by Nunukruru
About This Novel
Many years later, Michelangelo stood under the dome of the Sistine Chapel and recalled this: On that early morning in 1478, a ragged young man walked into Ghirlandaio's studio. "We called him 'the Sicilian bumpkin' back then because he was so poor that he couldn't even afford paint." "It was the first time he used geometric lines instead of perspective, and the first time he used human structure to define sculpture..." He turned around and looked at the room full of apprentices: "He is not a painter, a sculptor, or an architect! But he is the soul of medieval art. You can't see it, but he is in every painting!" ............. Brief version: In the 21st century, a top professor at Central Academy of Fine Arts woke up to become a poor painter in Florence. At this time, Leonardo da Vinci was still working in the workshop, and "David" had not yet been born... Years later, all the great masters called him their teacher. He did not sign his name, but he led the entire Renaissance.
