Before reaching the tender age of 30,
Michelangelo Buonarroti
(1475–1564) 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 unique—
no artist before or after him has ever produced such a vast, multifaceted, and wide-ranging œuvre
.
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, and architecture, 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.
