EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable wall drawing of a nude figure, believed to be created around 1530 by the legendary artist Michelangelo Buonarroti. Executed in charcoal on plaster, this masterpiece can be found within the walls of San Lorenzo in Florence, Italy. Discovered in 1975, this hidden gem was found tucked away in a small room behind the Cappella Medicee. It is speculated that Michelangelo sought refuge here under the protection of the prior of San Lorenzo after the return of the powerful Medici family to Florence. The image captured by David Lee beautifully captures every intricate detail and stroke made by Michelangelo's skilled hand. The male figure depicted exudes strength and grace as he appears to be running with purpose and determination. As one gazes upon this artwork, it transports us back to the Renaissance era when masterpieces like these were revered for their artistic brilliance. This photograph not only serves as a visual reminder of Michelangelo's immense talent but also highlights his ability to bring life and movement into his creations. With its historical significance and undeniable beauty, this wall drawing continues to captivate art enthusiasts from around the world. Thanks to David Lee's photography skills, we are able to appreciate this extraordinary piece even if we cannot witness it firsthand at San Lorenzo chapel.
