Anthony Hughes, Michelangelo, Ed. Phaidon, 1997

Titolo completo: «Michelangelo. A survey of one of the greatest masters of the Renaissance»

«A legend within his own lifetime, Michelangelo (1457-1564) has been universally admired in the centuries since his death. Anthony Hughes employs the latest evidence from research and restoration projects to take a fresh look at what Michelangelo was and what he has become.

The book sets the artist firmly within the political and social world he inhabited, offering a full account of his creative endeavours in sculpture, drawing, painting, architecture and poetry; it interprets the works not only as the expressions of an individual sensibility but also as the results of often difficult transactions between artist and clients».
