Michelangelo di Lodovico Buonarroti Simoni exercised a huge influence on the development of Western art. He is considered a nominee for the title of the archetypal Renaissance man, along with Leonardo da Vinci. Michelangelo was the first Western artist whose biography was published while he was alive. Giorgio Vasari proposed that he was the high point of all artistic achievement of the Renaissance. In this way Michelangelo, indirectly, marked the beginning of the next major movement in Western art – that of Mannerism.A sculptor, architect, painter, and graphic artist, Michelangelo cannot be assigned definitely to any of those genres.

Contemporaries of Michelangelo collected his drawings during his lifetime and guarded them like precious gems.
