LIMITED EDITION MICHELANGLO MAGNUM

 FOUNTAIN PEN

 

With the talent and grace of a master, the detail and delicacy of a perfectionist, and the soul and emotion of an infinite spirit, Michelangelo Buonarroti became one of the greatest and most admired artists of all time. His numerous masterpieces display his sophisticated understanding of human existence, his unique interpretation of shape and form, and his phenomenal talent as a painter, sculptor and architect. Living during the Renaissance, a time of political uneasiness, Michelangelo surpassed the criticisms and disruptions of his surroundings, remaining true to his beliefs and never compromising the extravagance of his artistry.

One of Michelangelo's most famous works is the gigantic marble sculpture, David, which took him over three years to complete. Michelangelo created David as a symbol of heroic courage and inner spiritual strength. This sculpture became one of the first examples of Michelangelo's intricate study of the human form.

Perhaps Michelangelo's most widely known accomplishment is the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel in the Vatican where he painted more than three-hundred figures in a series of panels depicting scenes from the book of Genesis. To this day, the colossal dimension and pure brilliance of the Sistine Chapel ceiling astounds all who observe it.

The Krone Limited Edition Michelangelo Pen was created to honor not only the artist, but also the man, who blessed the world of fine art with his talent. The focus of the Michelangelo Pen centers around the intricately carved mammoth ivory barrel, featuring Apollo, one of Michelangelo's most stunning sculptures of the human form. Surrounded by a delicately sculpted design that reflects the Renaissance era, the barrel encompasses the elegant appearance of, not only Michelangelo's talent, but also the unique artistry of the 16th century. On top of the cap is a sculpted ivory design, adorned with a triple leaf swirl that conveys the romanticism of the Renaissance period. An intricate gold border, conceived and designed by Michelangelo, surrounds the leaf design. On the magnum edition of the pen, Krone offers an incredible variation of this feature. Instead of ivory, the top of the cap is mother of pearl and painted with an amazing miniature representation of Michelangelo's Doni Tondo (Holy Family). This wondrous composition of the Christ child with St. Joseph and the Madonna was carefully painted by a Russian miniature lacquer artist, who has captured the breathtaking effect of Michelangelo's masterpiece within a canvas only millimeters wide. The accuracy and precision of this creation leaves the human eye in a state of awe-stricken amazement. Covered in classically textured antique gold, with an intricately sculptured clip, the Michelangelo Pen is a masterpiece to observe, and a worthy tribute to Michelangelo, a master artist himself.

Michelangelo spent much of his time in solitude, dedicating his life and his work to God. He filled his existence with the art he loved to create. Through its magnificence, he expressed to the world his spirit, intellect and divine talent as a master artist. He was and is remembered as a genius of his time, and his art, as feats of miraculous accomplishment and beauty.
