Features: Michelangelo (1475-1564), as a giant of the Renaissance, created timeless masterpieces that had an unparalleled and immense impact both during his lifetime and in posterity. Like Leonardo da Vinci, he was extraordinarily versatile, excelling as a sculptor, painter, architect, and poet. Blessed with a life span of 89 years, he spent over 70 years in his artistic career. His experiences with life's hardships and the vicissitudes of the world imbued his works with dramatic effects, majestic grandeur, and the tragedy of humanity. This art album selects the most celebrated paintings of Michelangelo, each accompanied by information such as the title of the work, commentary, creation date, material, dimensions, painting technique, collector, and influence index, making it extremely valuable. The album features innovative design and exquisite text. The introductory section "Approaching Western Painting" also provides readers with knowledge about Western oil painting, including techniques, appreciation, and collection, as well as how to use this book.
