S1 E2: At the age of 26, Michelangelo produced a statue of David from a flawed piece of marble. He then engaged in a titanic struggle to paint the ceiling of the Vatican’s Sistine Chapel and designed the unique dome on St Peter's Basilica in Rome. This drama-documentary asks how one artist was able to create such an array of masterpieces, plus scores of other incredible sculptures and paintings.
