The late medieval and early modern period witnessed in Catholic contexts an extension or âprolungamentoâ of goodbyes. Michelangeloâs own inability to finish, and hence say goodbye to many of his works, both manifests this sense of prolungamento and introduces a disquieting new element that challenges the nature of human work as a means toward salvation. This is especially clear when we consider two aspects of Michelangeloâs career. One is his representation of Mary, the mediator who typically intervenes to assure the worth of oneâs work. The other is his relationship to the poet he most admired, Dante, whose Commedia is very much a finished text that expresses hope in its own afterlife thanks in no small part to Maryâs presence in its final canto. In furnishing a reading of the (unfinished) Medici chapel as well as a handful of Michelangeloâs lyric poems for Vittoria Colonna, this essay situates the two Florentines, and two versions of Mary, within the framework of the changing spatial and temporal dynamics of the farewell at a time of religious turmoil.
