Michelangelo explores the tumultuous life of the fascinating sculptor, painter, poet, architect . . . and genius.
The statue of David. The Pietà. The ceiling of the Sistine Chapel. All iconic renaissance masterpieces, and all created by Michelangelo. Written by a world-renowned expert, this magnificent portrait of the artist examines Michelangelo’s unusual beginnings, tracking his meteoric rise to fame and brash, difficult-to-work-with attitude. In addition to beautiful photos of Michelangelo’s varied works, it includes images of meaningful memorabilia from his life: personal letters, preliminary sketches, sonnets, and even his birth certificate. Michelangelo paints a vivid picture of an exceptional yet deeply human individual and the remarkable times in which he lived.
Reissue of The Treasures of Michelangelo in a new format, with previously removable documents now shown in photographs.
