Unless you're an archirect, which I am not, this a very difficult book to understand. The terminology is unique to architects, and without some explanation, the layman has no idea what the author is talking about.
I had expected more illustrations and photos of Michelangelo's works, and was disappointed with what I got. |

| Michelangelo Buonarroti is one of the most famous Italian artists in the whole world. I've already read books from the author: James S. Ackerman. and I can realy tell you he writes fantastically. This book is written in a specifical manner nearly in a "scientific" manner I must say. It brings up problems that at the time were Nudity etc. That in our days don't cause problems as in the old days. It has a very specific content about art and how it was seen in the 1500 and how it is seen righht now. It is a solid book and I recomand it to each art lover. |
