Michelangelo lived through the next art period...early 1600s.

Michelangelo--sculptor, artitect, poet, and painter. But he wanted to be known as a sculptor rather than a painter

Raphael--painter

Leonardo--renaissance man. I have seen his notebooks in my university's library. If you can read backwards Italian.....I highly recommend people to look at them.

In Raphael's School of Athens....the artists of the High Renaissance are placed in there by Raphael. Everyone's challenge is to look at it and try to identify the artists in the painting. I know the answers.
