DONATELLO

Every person has their own version of uniqueness of themselves. What makes an artist great is that they use their talent as a proxy for expressing their own thoughts and feelings. 

 

Introducing Donato di Niccolò di Betto Bardi, better known as Donatello. A great Italian sculpture of the Renaissance. An artist who left a huge impression with his meaningful and magnificent art pieces. He noted particularly for his figures in marble, bronze, and wood. His sculpted figures were some of the first since antiquity to represent anatomy correctly—though some late works were slightly exaggerated—and to suggest a sense of individuality.
