Michelangelo was born on March 6, 1475. Throughout his career he did a little painting (think ceiling of the Sistine Chapel), did a little sculpting (think
Pietà), but some say most of Michelangelo's career was devoted to architecture (think St. Peter's Basilica dome).
So, was Michelangelo Buonarroti an architect, an artist, or a genuine Renaissance man? Read more about Renaissance architecture.
