Antonia C. (Anliena) reviewed on + 4 more book reviews
One of my professors recommended this book before the start of the next semester. I'm so glad I took her advice and got this book from PBS. I haven't finished it yet, but already I've learned so much about, not just Michelangelo, but painting techniques and other artists of the day, Da Vinci and Raphael to name two. You also learn so much more about Pope who commissioned Michelangelo as well.
Overall though, this book holds your attention because it shows Michelangelo as a man. You know his emotions, shortcomings, and his relationships with those around him including his own family. It makes the history come alive. You have to get this book, its a great living book.
