The artist protested he was retired, and “architecture isn’t my profession.” But one doesn’t say no to the pope. Thus, the artist who had carved the Pietà, the David, and Moses, and painted the Sistine Chapel became the supreme architect of the largest and most important building project in the world.Age is just a number, especially today.
