Michelangelo

Painter, sculptor, and architect, Michelangelo is one of the most widely viewed artists in the world, with his works discovered each year by millions of visitors to the Vatican. From the Sistine Chapel to his great marble sculptures, this monograph highlights a monumental career in which painting and sculpture engage in a shared pursuit of excellence.

Written by Neville Rowley, a specialist in 15th-century Italian painting and sculpture, it offers insight into the singularity of an artist whose legacy still profoundly shapes our understanding of the Renaissance.
