Humanities critical thinking paragraph

Prior to Michelangelo, artists did not receive much individual observance or notoriety for the work they did. They were seen as nothing more than “journeymen”, who got paid. Michelangelo turned around the world's view of artists through his extraordinary works of art. With revolutionary art, he created some of the most admired pieces known to man; his focus to specific detail (most of the time this detailed work was of the human body) made his work phenomenal. Michelangelo Buonarroti was born on March 6th 1475, in Caprese, Italy where his father Lodovico was a government agent at the time but originally worked in Florence as a banker. His family moved back to Florence before he was even a month old.
