Michelangelo
This splendid book is a part of the Phaidon Art & Ideas series, and as the title suggests, it explores the art and life of Michelangelo. Author Anthony Hughes has written some fascinating chapters about the legendary artist, including "These Great Masters", "Strong, Violent and Difficult to Manage", and the final section that explores "The Unfinished Task".
