Michelangelo and the Sistine Chapel
39.99 €
Ross King is the bestselling author of "Leonardo da Vinci and the Last Supper," "Enchanting Madness. Claude Monet and the water lilies." His next book is a fascinating account of how the painting of the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel was created, based on historical documents and the latest research of historians and art historians. It is a story of titanic labor against the backdrop of painful creative dissatisfaction, countless hardships of life, disturbing political collisions, confrontation with a brilliantly gifted young rival - Raphael of Urbino and the influential architect Bramante, as well as strained relations with the powerful customer. The majestic fresco, created against all odds, was destined to make Michelangelo's name famous for centuries.
