The sole name of Leonardo Da Vinci brings back the whole idea of what the Renaissance was. He encompasses the Universal man. He studied all aspects of life, from science to painting and he captured the essence of humanity. On the other hand, Michelangelo, who was known as the most prestigious sculptor of his time, left us with the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel and the Last Judgment.
