Title: Magnifico!
Review: As a portrait artist trained in the Renaissance style of painting, I've read this book 24 times in two languages. To wrestle along with Il Divino as he chooses theme, composition, presentation, gives the reader a whole new perspective on the creation of a work of art. Whenever I need a boost in my own work, I turn back to Michelangelo, via Irving Stone, for guidance. For the non-artist, this book is a small glimpse into what we artists are faced with in our work as well as a fantastically accurate historical look at Italy in the 16th century. Bravo, Mr Stone!
