renaissance - old master - donatello

donatello.. probably the least known of the ninja turtles.... he was more of a sculptor than a painter.. but what he could do with marble and bronze is still... quite.. impressive..

Donato di Niccolò di Betto Bardi (circa 1386 – December 13, 1466), also known as Donatello, was an early Renaissance Italian painter andsculptor from Florence. He is, in part, known for his work in bas-relief, a form of shallow relief sculpture that, in Donatello's case, incorporated significant 15th-century developments in perspectival illusionism.
