Irving Stone’s timeless biographical novel about Michelangelo, a #1 New York Times bestseller that vividly brings both the artist and the man to life. Set in the turbulent Renaissance period, filled with poisoning princes, warring Popes, and the powerful de'Medici family, Michelangelo’s story unfolds. His loves include the delicate daughter of Lorenzo de'Medici, the passionate mistress of Marco Aldovrandi, and his ultimate love, the beautiful yet sorrowful Vittoria Colonna. His genius, fueled by a divine passion, produces remarkable works that reach for the heavens like no other in five hundred years. Known as Michelangelo Buonarroti, he is the mastermind behind the iconic David statue, the painter of the Sistine Chapel ceiling, and the architect of St. Peter's dome.
Through Stone's powerful writing, Michelangelo springs back to life, portrayed in all his tempestuous glory. This biographical novel stands as a masterpiece in itself, offering a captivating glimpse into the life of one of the world's greatest artists.
