Bridget's feedback:

"This is a solid piece of informative writing that demonstrates a clear sense of purpose that helps inform the focus and organization. Your next steps should focus on tidying up and refining certain elements to ensure you are submitting a polished final draft. These will include bringing your page formatting into alignment with your style guide; in the absence of one, check your instructor's expectations. Likely you will want to use double-spacing and paragraph indents to guide your reader visually.

Similarly, review your style guide for how to indicate titles of works; italicizing the names of paintings, for example, not only demonstrates your credibility and ownership of the presentation (ethos) but also helps your reader navigate the sentences, rather than asking them to parse out when a phrase actually a proper noun.

Proofread to catch occasional mechanics errors (these are few and far between, with a recurring issue with semicolon usage). At the levels of style and flow, the opening sentences are a little choppy. This evens out soon after: spend a little more time with the first 3-4 introductory sentences. For example, I can see sentences 2 and 3 becoming a single sentence that asserts Michelangelo's status in the broader context: "He and Leonardo [da Vinci] were considered to be the two greatest figures of the highly artistic Renaissance period.""
