Michelangelo: The Complete Paintings, Sculptures and Architecture - Frank Zollner

Product Details

Il divino Meet the Renaissance master Before reaching the tender age of 30, Michelangelo Buonarroti (1475-1564) had already sculpted Pieta and David, two of the most famous sculptures in the entire history of art. As a sculptor, painter, draftsman, and architect, the achievements of this Italian master are unique no artist before or after him has ever produced such a vast, multifaceted, and wide-ranging oeuvre. This fresh Taschen edition traces Michelangelo's ascent to the cultural elite of the Renaissance. Ten richly illustrated chapters cover the artist s paintings, sculptures, buildings, and drawings, including a close analysis of the artist s tour de force frescoes in the Sistine Chapel. Full-page reproductions and enlarged details allow readers to appreciate the finest details in the artist s repertoire, while the book s biographical essay considers Michelangelo s more personal traits and circumstances, such as his solitary nature, his thirst for money and commissions, his immense wealth, and his skill as a property investor.
