Donatello of Ninja Turtles Is For Real
If you have watched Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, you would take notice of the purple ninja turtle because among the four mutants, this turtle is least violent. Donatello, the turtle, is a brilliant scientist, an engineer, an inventor, and a techno-savvy. As I’ve said, he is the least violent because he prefers to use his intellect to resolve conflicts and avoid head-on wars as much as he can.
This character is in fact named after the famous Italian Donatello. Born in 1386 and died in 1486, this Renaissance man from Florence was popular for many things including his sculpture of David in Florence. It can be remembered that he was one of the early artists who worked with the idea of perspective. Through his skill, sculpting, he had brought dramatic shapes to life with his talent.
So can you compare now the two characters? Donatello the Italian artist and the Donatello of the kids’ all time favorite cartoon show?
