I think Da Vinci was better at perspective than Michelangelo and I far prefer Michelangelo as a sculptor rather than a painter. The Pieta is a masterful example.

One of the things that effected the content of the art in renaissance times was that the artist didn’t conceive the subject. Just as the popes in Michaelangelos time were the ones who invented the subjects and may have even suggested symbols that were used in their day. Just as Da Vinci was asked one time how he came up with his ideas, he replied that he studied the cracks in the ceiling. An artist who is facile in drawing can make almost anything out of a scribble. It would take a bit of creative meandering to invent the figures for the Popes tomb but that is where the skill of the artist and the suggestion of the popes or clergy work together. The skill of Michaelangelo was in his drawing of form and study of anatomy and maybe even the special effects that he created by his use of perspective.

I acknowledge Mr. Brown’s talent but the content often offends.

“great works” is an over statement. His style may be enjoyable for some but the rediculous content overshadows it.
