Each of us has our own opinion of what a "Renaissance man" truly is. Some say he is a perfectionist in one subject, others say he is knowledgeable in many areas but master of none. People like Leonardo da Vinci, Albrecht Durer,woodcut printer, and Michelangelo have all been acknowledged as great leaders of the Italian renaissance; they each brought something unique and extremely amazing to the art world. Michelangelo, being said as equal to da Vinci, brought his own style and technique into the public eye and changed the Renaissance with his originality. Michelangelo was born in 1475 and died in 1564(“Michelangelo” para.1).
