Author: Thomas Popper

About Michelangelo: Drawings:

Graphic beauty Michelangelo's breathtaking drawings Very few artists can claim such lasting and worldwide fame and importance as Michelangelo Buonarroti (1475-1564). The nickname il divino ("the divine one") has been applied to him since the 1530s right through to today: his achievements as a sculptor, painter, and architect remain unparalleled and his creations are among the best-known artworks in the world . This Bibliotheca Universalis edition is devoted to the artist's graphic work , a testimony to his masterly command of line, form, and detail, from architectural studies to anatomically perfect figures. The book brings together some of the artist's finest drawings from museums and collections around the world as well as some of his own notes and revisions , offering stunning proximity not only to the ambition and scope of Michelangelo's practice but also his working process.
