Michelangelo by William E. Wallace The Complete Sculpture Painting and Architect

About the Item

Michelangelo by William E. Wallace Hardcover Table Book The Complete Sculpture Painting and Architecture. Easton Press Oversized Hardcover Book 1998. With an engaging text by renowned Michelangelo scholar William E. Wallace, "Michelangelo: The Complete Sculpture, Painting, Architecture" brings together in one exquisite volume the powerful sculptures, the awe-inspiring paintings, and the classical architectural works of one of the greatest artists of all time. Including everything from his sculptures Pietas and David to his beautiful paintings of the Sistine Chapel and the Doni Tondo, the book provides an opportunity to view Michelangelo s work as never before, and to more fully understand the artist who, through his work, spoke of his life and times. The frescoes are specially printed on onion skin paper to recreate the actual appearance of light reflecting off of the plaster walls. The stunning black-and-white photography of the sculptures is printed in four colors to bring out the rich details of the marble." Michelangelo is universally recognized as one of the greatest artists of all time, yet his life-which spanned the Italian Renaissance to the first stirrings of the Counter-Reformation-continues to be obscured in myth. The Treasures of Michelangelo presents an original overview of the famed artist, drawing from his numerous poems, artwork, and letters. The wealth of information presented here offers a fresh perspective on his life and his relationships. Augmented by facsimiles of 15 documents from his personal papers and other archives, this beautiful package paints a vivid portrait of an exceptional yet deeply human individual and the remarkable times in which he lived. The overall condition of this book is very good. A marvelous must have for the collector, student or artist. • Meticulously Bound in Genuine Premium Leather • Ribbed Spine with 22 kt Gold Accents • Stunning 22 kt Gold Cover Designs • All Edges Gilt •Permanent Satin Ribbon Page Marker • Specially Milled Acid-neutral Archival Paper to Last for Generations • Deluxe Heavyweight Binder Boards • Highest Quality Smith-sewn Binding, Not Glued, for Strength and Durability • Handsomely Textured Moire Fabric Endleaves • Reinforced Concealed Joints • Rigorous All-point Inspection Ensures Superb Craftsmanship and Enduring Qualit Format:Hardcover Language:English Release Date:October 1998 Publisher:beaux Arts Edition Length:280 Pages Weight:5.98 lbs.
