Description
Before reaching the tender age of 30, Michelangelo Buonarroti (14751564) had already sculpted Pietà 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 uniqueno artist before or after him has ever produced such a vast, multifaceted, and wide-ranging uvre.This fresh TASCHEN edition traces Michelangelos ascent to the cultural elite of the Renaissance. Ten richly illustrated chapters cover the artists paintings, sculptures, and architecture, including a close analysis of the artists tour de force frescoes in the Sistine Chapel.Full-page reproductions and enlarged details allow readers to appreciate the finest details in the artists repertoire, while the books biographical essay considers Michelangelos 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.
