David's eye, Michelangelo master of details.
Michelangelo lost his mother early, he was only six years old when it happened. Michelangelo's father Lodovico, at one time the mayor of Caprese, literally broke his son's arms because he thought that painting and sculpture was nonsense and a waste of time. That is why Michelangelo learned to work secretly, "in his head", and that is where the famous anecdote comes from, when it was said that he went completely crazy and sat on the glade for days and watched a huge discarded marble stone in the sun. When the prince came to visit him, when asked "what is he doing on that glade", Michelangelo answered with "I create". Three years later, exactly that piece of marble that other artists rejected as unsuitable and impossible to process will become David.
Davidovo oko, Mikelanđelo majstor detalja.
Mikelanđelo je ostao bez majke rano, imao je svega šest godina kada se to desilo. Mikelanđelov otac Lodoviko, jedno vreme gradonačelnik Kaprezea, je bukvalno svom sinu lomio ruke zato što je smatrao da je slikarstvo i vajarstvo budalaština i traćenje vremena. Zbog toga je Mikelanđelo naučio da radi krišom, "u glavi", i otud potiče ona čuvena anegdota, kada se pričalo da je potpuno poludeo i da danima sedi na proplanku i posmatra ogroman odbačeni kamen mermera na Suncu. Kada je princ došao da ga obiđe, na pitanje "šta radi na tom proplanku" Mikelanđelo odgovara sa "stvaram". Tri godine kasnije, upravo taj komad mermera koji su ostali umetnici odbacili kao neprikladan i nemoguć za obradu postaće David.
