Michelangelo was one of the greatest sculptors and painters during the Italian Renaissance. Among his best-known works, his sculpture David exudes power and fully displays the extraordinary courage of humanity. His painting on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel is a monumental piece in the history of Western art. In addition, his design of the dome of St. Peter’s Basilica remains an architectural marvel to this day. This book reveals the story behind these and other remarkable pieces, and gives us a deeper look into the life of the man who created them.
