This issue honors the 550th anniversary of the birth of Italian Renaissance painter and sculptor, Michelangelo Buonarroti (1475-1564).
Michelangelo di Lodovico Buonarroti Simoni was an Italian sculptor, painter, architect, and poet of the High Renaissance. Born in the Republic of Florence, Michelangelo trained in the workshop of Maestro Ghirlandaio and his work was inspired by models from classical antiquity which had a lasting influence on Western art.
The reverse depicts the pencil drawing "Cleopatra" (1535) on display at Casa Buonarroti in Florence, a magnificent piece made for Tommaso de’ Cavalieri, who was a great friend of Michelangelo’s. It is considered one of the rare examples of the more intimate and delicate side of Michelangelo’s output.
The obverse is the standard 2 euro design featuring a map of Europe and the denomination. |
