This book offers a fresh perspective on Michelangelo's well-known
masterpiece, the Vatican Pieta, by tracing the shifting meaning of
the work of art over time. Lisa M. Rafanelli chronicles the object
history of the Vatican Pieta and the active role played by its many
reproductions. The sculpture has been on continuous view for over
500 years, during which time its cultural, theological, and
artistic significance has shifted. Equally important is the fact
that over its long life it has been relocated numerous times and
has also been reproduced in images and objects produced both during
Michelangelo's lifetime and long after, described here as artistic
progeny: large-scale, unique sculpted variants, smaller-scale
statuettes, plaster and bronze casts, and engraved prints. The book
will be of interest to scholars working in art history, Renaissance
studies, early modern studies, religion, Christianity, and
theology.
