MICHELANGELO Buonarroti: Putti

🖼 Putti, 1511
Fresco
Vatican, Italy

Plump cherubs float in soft modeling against pale background, their rounded forms rendered with delicate precision. These putti became iconic Renaissance motifs, influencing decorative arts for centuries and exemplifying Michelangelo's ability to infuse even minor figures with monumental grace.
