By Christof Thoenes, Frank Zöllner and Thomas Pöpper.
Before reaching the age of 30, Michelangelo Buonarroti (1475-1564) had already sculpted "David" and "Pièta," two of the most famous sculptures in the history of art. This massive tome explores this artist's life and work. The first section explores Michelangelo's life with text and images, then the main body of the book presents a complete overview of his paintings, sculptures, drawings, and architectural plans. This humongous chronicle (almost 700 pages!) provides gorgeous, full page reproductions (most in color) with enlarged details!
