[New-Poetry] Michelangelo: The love poet

[Anny Ballardini]

>From Vasari on Leonardo da Vinci:

There was great illfeeling between him and Michael Angelo Buonarroti, on
which account Michael Angelo left Florence. But when Lionardo heard this, he
set out and went into France, where the king, having already some of his
works, was well affectioned towards him, and desired that he should colour
his cartoon of S. Anne; but he, according to his custom, kept him waiting a
long time.
