Michelangelo
o Illustrated with 15 black and white images
o Enhanced with 11 images in color
According to the Preface: "In making a collection of prints from the works of Michelangelo, it is impossible to secure any wide variety, either in subject or method of treatment. We are dealing here with a master whose import is always serious, and whose artistic individuality is strongly impressed on all his works, either in sculpture or painting. Our selections represent his best work in both arts. These are arranged, not in chronological order, but in a way which will lead the student from the subjects most familiar and easily understood to those which are more abstract and difficult."
Included in this book are the following black and white images: The Madonna and Child, David, Cupid, Moses, The Holy Family, The Pieta, Christ Triumphant, The Creation of Man, Jeremiah, Daniel, The Delphic Sibyl, The Cumaean Sibyl, Lorenzo de Medici, The Tomb of Giuliano de Medici, and Central Figures in the Last Judgment.
Estelle Hurll wrote a collection of analyses of art, all of which can be found on Kindle, each with an additional picture gallery, and published by Amity EBooks. Those include: Child-Life in Art, Correggio, Greek Sculpture, Landseer, The Madonna, Michelangelo, Millet, Raphael, Rembrandt, Reynolds, Titian, Tuscan Sculpture, and Van Dyke.
