Michelangelo

This splendid work was first published in 1953 and remains a classic of the literature on Michalangelo. It continues to be the only volume that contains illustrations of all the master's work excluding his drawings (the recently ascribed head from the Rondanini Pieta, now in a public collection in Italy, is also omitted). Michelangelo is designed to serve both the student and the art lover; the fine quality of the reproductions and the beauty of the details emphatically prove Michelangelo's genius, while the text surveys the opinions of the leading Michelangelo scholars and provides a commentary with bibiographical notes. In all respects this volume is an indispensable and standard work on one of the greatest masters of all time.
