The Royal Academy is bringing together three giants of the Renaissance for the Michelangelo, Leonardo, Raphael exhibition. The artists briefly crossed paths in Florence at the start of the 16th century, with some of the city’s most prominent artists, including Leonardo da Vinci, meeting in January 1504 to advise in a location for Michelangelo’s David. This show, featuring works from all three artists and some of the best examples of Italian Renaissance drawing, will explore the rivalry between Leonardo and Michelangelo and the impact that both artists had on Raphael.
