Before reaching the tender age of 30, Michelangelo Buonarroti (1475โ1564) had already sculpted Pietร 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 uniqueโ no artist before or after him has ever produced such a vast, multifaceted, and wide-ranging ลuvre . This fresh TASCHEN edition traces Michelangeloโs ascent to the cultural elite of the Renaissance. Ten richly illustrated chapters cover the artistโs paintings, sculptures, and architecture, including a close analysis of the artistโs tour de force frescoes in the Sistine Chapel . Full-page reproductions and enlarged details allow readers to appreciate the finest details in the artistโs repertoire, while the bookโs biographical essay considers Michelangeloโs 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.

Excellent book! Worth every penny. Outstanding quality and narrative.
I do love Taschen's Art books, but this is their masterpiece! I have taught Art History and this is now my main reference source. The images and binding are beautiful and I truly loved all the detailed close ups of his most famous sculptures, paintings and architectural designs.

Awesome book!
Excellent book with well-written text. You canโt go wrong with Zollner and Taschen. My only complaint is the complete and total exclusion of any mention of the Torment of Saint Anthony painting (Kimbell Museum). Even if itโs disputed (which most today are considering it autograph), it at least deserves a mention! I would have also liked some more angles of the sculptures. Still absolutely worth a buy, though!

QUE LIVRO BELรSSIMO!!Eu estou TรO feliz em tรช-lo recebido!!Para os apreciadores das obras do Michelangelo รฉ um Must Have!!Infelizmente nรฃo รฉ possรญvel fazer um review melhor por causa da censura das obras. Ou seja, nรฃo dรก para mostrar pรกginas especรญficas do livro.Estava com muito receio de vir danificado, pois veio dos Estados Unidos , mas graรงas ร Deus veio apenas com uma pontinha amassada, quase que imperceptรญvel.Meu sonho era ter a versรฃo XXL, mas este tamanho XL me impressionou!!! Tenho a versรฃo pequenininha que tambรฉm รฉ muito linda!Hรก muitas pรกginas que vocรช pode abrir para ter um Overview , muitas imagens de tirar o fรดlego, algumas pรกginas em dourado que dรฃo um efeito majestoso. Texto incrรญvel!E o livro รฉ enorme pessoalmente!! Tem quase 4 quilos.Vale ร pena o investimento! Todos os dias sinto vontade de apreciar as obras!ร um livro para passar de geraรงรฃo em geraรงรฃo!!

Packaging bad, book is good.
Book is well worth buying but if you want it to arrive in good condition look elsewhere.Once again, spent a lot of money on a book at Amazon AU and it's put in a box that's too big with zero protection around it and gets damaged.Paid for quick delivery which used to reduce the chance of damage but not anymore.Delivery drivers don't pay attention to the arrows on the boxes and leave them on their side which will only create more damage if the books aren't well packed.Publishers produce excellent quality books only for them to be damaged on delivery. What a waste of resources.As usual, no way to leave feedback about the poor packaging unless you return the product. Even then nothing changes. What's happened, Amazon?
