The art of the painter, sculptor and architect Michelangelo Buonarroti, able – as Stendhal wrote – to impress a “fright into the souls” with his art, is the subject of this monograph. The stylistic life of one of the most important protagonists of the worldwide art is analyzed through the historic and critic analysis of his works, here arranged according to a geographic order, a sort of itinerary which goes from the works kept in Florence – the famous “David” and the “Tondo Doni” – to his masterpieces in the Vatican and then to his works in Milan, Paris and London.
