Donatello




Donato di Niccolò di Betto Bardi, known as Donatello (1386-1466) was an Italian artist and sculptor of the early Renaissance, one of the fathers of the period together with Leon Battista Alberti, Brunelleschi and Masaccio. Donatello became an innovative force in the field of monumental sculpture and treatment of the reliefs, where he managed to make a big depth within a flat minimum, being called by the name of stiacciato, ie "flattened or crushed relief".

Donatello's fame was so great during the High Renaissance, influenced great artists like Andrea del Verrocchio, Raphael, Michelangelo and Benvenuto Cellini and others.
