Michelangelo’s Muse

March 21, 2014 Funny Or Die

Much of Michelangelo's art was commissioned by the Medici family. It was their artistic requests that shaped his style and, ultimately, the time period. 

 

 
 
 

The courage, the pain. It's all there on his face. Fine work, Michelangelo. 

So you like it, Mr. Medici? 

Yeah… Sure.

What? What's not to your liking?

It's just, I noticed you didn't make his penis visible. 

Well, Young David is just a boy. I felt it may be inappropriate to include his genitals. 

Be that as it may, I really think you should include the penis. 

Do you think it's necessary?

The question isn't whether or not you should include a penis, it's how many penises you should include. 

I'm not even sure what that means. 

Listen, I've been talking to the pope and he's going to need a ceiling covered in penises. 

Can I include their bodies, perhaps telling the story of the Bible in the process? You know, to give the genitals some context. 

Whatever, you're the foremost "penis expert guy" of our time. 

I'm called an "artist."
