Michelangelo lived during a tumultuous time politically. When he was a young man in Florence, the people were finally embracing their pagan Roman past by incorporating its best parts into their Christian present. 🖼This they called the Humanist movement.
Savonarola eventually becomes the ruler is Florence but this is short lived as is crazy dictatorship catches the attention of the pope, which leads to his execution. 🤴 We visited visit San Marco and saw Savonarolla’s quarters, they even have his clothes!
