ANSWERS: 1
  • I have found no credible reference to Michelangelo being physically deformed. The two biographies published during his lifetime do not seem to mention any, although I haven't read either in any depth. I had previously found references to what some considered a "spiritual deformity" and the homoeroticism of his art and poetry. I don't consider this a deformity, however.
