Michelangelo

Explanation:

From 1505, Michelangelo worked for nine Roman popes, beginning with Julius II, all the way to Pius IV. The work he did for the Vatican was enormous, encompassing everything from making a decorative button for the Pope's bed to painting the Sistine Chapel, which took four grueling years. For most of the golden years of his career, Michelangelo spent overseeing the construction of the St. Peter's Basilica in the Vatican. Even as he became too weak to go to work, he still supervised the work from home by sending his drawings to a trusted business man.
