In this blog post you are going to read about a famous artist that I like and I like an artist called Donato di Niccolo di Betto Bardi and his statues. He was better known as Donatello.
Donatello was born in the year 1386 as it does not say what date he was born on but he was the son of Niccolo di Betto Bardi. He was educated in the Martelli house and when he grew older made statues of people most likely.
As he lived Donatello made many statues of many people and made them all in different places like he assisted Lorenzo Ghiberti to make statues of profits for the North Door of the Baptistery of Florence Cathedral. What ever that is. Any ways I liked his art Maybe because the art looks cool and I don't think I could ever do that kind of sculpting by myself or at all in that matter.
Donatello died on the 13th December 1466 Florence, Italy aged 80 years old.
I'd say he lived a long life. When he was younger though he made some pretty impressive sculptures in my point of view. Here are two of my favourites!
