Bartolommeo who was actually Bartolommeo Brandini or better known as “Baccio Bandinelli” was born in Florence and had a fairly regular childhood compared to some of the most famous artists in the Renaissance like the great Leonardo DA’ Vinci or the amazing sculptor Michelangelo. While Baccio was growing up he was also a fairly unpleasant character according to most of the people who knew him, he was even referred to as the “Rotten Tomato Of The Renaissance.” As a young boy, Baccio was taken under his father's wing so he could become a master at Goldsmithing.

Role of Violence While some leaders believe in the rule of law and protection of lives and property, others perceive effective leadership as a combination of controlled violence, cruelty, and extrajudicial killings. Some political philosophers, such as Niccolo Machiavelli, believe in necessary brutality and the capacity of a ruler to act in an entirely self-serving way.

In the play Julius Caesar by William Shakespeare, the story of a corrupt Roman government unfolds. Brutus, the loyal “best friend” of Caesar, murders him in an attempt to save the citizens of Rome from becoming slaves under Caesar’s rule. Brutus and other conspirators, such as Cassius, believe that Caesar would have been a terrible king to the people of Rome because of the false proclamations of Caesar being a god.

Caravaggio used to draw paintings for church, he used to reveal the truth by drawing poor people.

Violence takes us all the way back to the Roman Empire. In the play, The Tragedy Of Julius Caesar by William Shakespeare, Shakespeare shows how easy it is for violence to become out of control.
