The Architect

Michelangelo entered architecture fairly late in life as his focus turned to the relationship between a work and the space it occupies. Renaissance values were already trying to fit the size of architectural elements to the dimensions of the human body. For his part, Michelangelo felt that proportions were only one consideration; he argued that the viability and functionality of a building were subsidiary although essential elements.
