By comparison, when I saw a few of Donatello’s sculptures I was surprised by how poorly he was able to convey faces compares to other artists. I am no art historian, I am just a big fan of TMNT :)
I know it’s bending the rules a bit, but a mere upvote doesn’t do your great service justice. Thank you, I love learning about xkcd gems. I guess I should go through them all!
Compared to his contemporaries? He is possibly the most influential sculptor of the Renaissance. Michelangelo wasn't even born yet when Donatello died.
That’s fair. I saw his sculptures in Florence as a part of a larger exhibit and his were by far the most abstract looking. But I don’t remember the dates.
