Il divino: A glorious exploration of Michelangelo s works Before
reaching the tender age of 30, Michelangelo Buonarroti (1475 1564)
had already sculpted David and Pieta, 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 uvre. This comprehensive book
explores Michelangelo s life and work with a richly illustrated
biographical essay, and a complete four-part inventory of his
paintings, sculptures, buildings, and drawings. Full-page
reproductions and enlarged details allow readers to appreciate fine
details in the artist s vast repertoire, while the book s
biographical insights consider a previously unseen extent to
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. In addition, the book
tackles the controversial issue of the attribution of Michelangelo
drawings, an area in which decisions continue to be steered by the
interests of the art market and the major collections. This is the
definitive work about Michelangelo for generations to come, to be
delved into and put on display, with its slipcase neatly converting
into a book stand."
