Michelangelo Buonarroti (1475–1564) is one of the few artists whose fame and influence remain worldwide.

This book is devoted to his architectural projects, figures, and expertly crafted line, form, and detailed graphic studies. It includes not only drawings gathered from museums and collections around the globe, but also the notes and revisions he made while creating his works. As a result, readers gain insight into Michelangelo’s creative process as well as the purpose and scope of his masterpieces. Hardcover, 740 pages, published February 2017, ISBN 9783836537193.
