While fans of Leonardo Da Vinci may quibble with the book’s title, this absorbing tome gathers together the full repertoire of Michelangelo’s work to create a vivid portrait of the artist’s life and career. With over 170 colour illustrations, including the ‘Pieta’, ‘David’, ‘Moses’ and the Sistine Chapel, this detailed biography is enhanced with rare documents from Michelangelo’s personal papers, such as plans and contracts for his commissions. Author William E. Wallace is a world-leading expert on Michelangelo and has written seven books about the artist.
