Description:
Five hundred years ago in the Vatican's Sistine Chapel, the legendary Renaissance genius Michelangelo put the first brushstroke to his most ambitious creation - the legends recounted in the Book of Genesis. In this new study, Andrew Graham-Dixon tells the fascinating human story behind this celebrated masterpiece. He analyses its many layers of meaning and teases out the multitude of ambiguities that lurk within its imagery of timeless magnificence. Coinciding with the 500th anniversary of this masterpiece, this is a retelling of the story of the Sistine Chapel for modern times and an essential companion guide to one of the artistic wonders of the world.
