intial fame brought him wealth and prestige but it did not bring something, something related to glory. Reputation declined after some years, therefore, something that he did not have was a long lasting glory. Then, acerbic Michelangelo comments on perugino, since he is acerbic, his comments would be harsh, and hasrh comment will be -ve, therefore, derided and bumpkin.
