The Regina Maria Theater presents on Tuesday, January 21, at 7 p.m., in the Arcadia hall (Passage Vulturul Negru), the show "On a happy man for many years...", a selection from Michelangelo Buonarroti's poetry to celebrate the 450th anniversary of his entry into eternity.

Michelangelo Buonarroti was, along with Leonardo da Vinci, the most important artist during the peak of the Italian Renaissance. His universal genius is equally reflected in painting, drawing, sculpture and architecture. He also wrote poetry, especially in the sonnet and madrigal genres. Michelangelo's genius reflected in the visual arts also finds its correspondence in literary creation.

The feelings, deep traits and thoughts of the master Michelangelo found expression, throughout his life, in a series of lyrical compositions and in many letters addressed to family and friends. Without being a man of letters by definition and without having the intention of publishing his poems, Buonarroti left behind many compositions in verse inspired by Petrarch, as the customs of the time demanded.

In the Regina Maria Theater performance, Oradea residents will have the chance to listen to Michelangelo's immortal verses, spoken by actor Eugen Țugulea.
