Genius of Michelangelo

Florence and Bologna in the Early 1490s (1x5)

Air date: Jan 01, 2007

The death of Lorenzo de' Medici leaves Michelangelo with neither a patron nor a means of support. We follow him to Flor­ence, where he begins his serious study of anatomy, and then to Bologna, where his work for the Sienese sculptor Jacopo della Quercia furthers his artistic maturation.
