Michelangelo and the Pope's Ceiling
ISBN: 9781620408407 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In 1508, despite strong advice to the contrary, the powerful Pope Julius II commissioned Michelangelo Buonarroti to paint the ceiling of the newly restored Sistine Chapel in Rome. Despite having completed his masterful statue David four years earlier, he had little experience as a painter, even less working in the delicate medium of fresco, and none with challenging curved surfaces such as the Sistine ceiling's vaults. The temperamental Michelangelo was himself reluctant: He stormed away from Rome, incurring Julius's wrath, before he was eventually persuaded to begin. ...

Part of the acclaimed Eminent Lives series, Machiavelli is a superb portrait of the brilliant and revolutionary political philosopher--history's most famous theorist of "warfare, terror, murder, and bloodshed"--and the age he embodied.

Michelangelo And The Pope's Ceiling
ISBN: 9781844139323 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. In 1508, Pope Julius II commissioned Michelangelo to paint the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel. The thirty-three-year-old Michelangelo had very little experience of the physically and technically taxing art of fresco; and, at twelve thousand square feet, the ceiling represented one of the largest such projects ever attempted. Nevertheless, for the next four years he and a handpicked team of assistants laboured over the vast ceiling, making thousands of drawings and spending backbreaking hours on a scaffolding fifty feet about the floor. The result was one of the greatest masterpieces of all...

Using Thailand as a case study, Ross King examines the role of place in the formation of identity through memory.

On August 19, 1418, a competition concerning Florence's magnificent new cathedral, Santa Maria del Fiore--already under construction for more than a century--was announced: "Whoever desires to make any model or design for the vaulting of the main Dome....shall do so before the end of the month of September." The proposed dome was regarded far and wide as all but impossible to build: not only would it be enormous, but its original and sacrosanct design shunned the flying buttresses that supported cathedrals all over Europe. The dome would literally need to be erected over thin air. Of...

Leonardo i Ostatnia Wieczerza
ISBN: 9788365613110 / Polski / Twarda / 2017 / 440 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 6-8 dni roboczych. W 1495, Leonardo da Vinci zaczął jedno z najbardziej wpływowych dzieł sztuki w dziejach – „Ostatnią Wieczerzę”. Po dekadzie spędzonej na dworze Lodovico Sforzy, hrabiego Mediolanu, Leonardo był w punkcie zero: w wieku 43 lat, nie dokonał, pomimo stworzenia wielu prestiżowych dzieł, niczego, co naprawdę byłoby warte jego nadzwyczajnych umiejętności. Jego ostatnią klęską był gigantyczny koń z brązu odlany na cześć ojca Lodovica, zrobiony z materiału skonfiskowanego przez wojsko. Zlecenie namalowania Ostatniej Wieczerzy miało być małą kompensatą tej porażki,...

Leonardo and the Last Supper
ISBN: 9781408831182 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. For more than five centuries The Last Supper has been an artistic, religious and cultural icon. The art historian Kenneth Clark called it 'the keystone of European art', and for a century after its creation it was regarded as nothing less than a miraculous image. And yet there is a very human story behind this artistic 'miracle'. Ross King's Leonardo and the Last Supper is both a 'biography' of one of the most famous works of art ever painted and a record of Leonardo da Vinci's last five years in Milan.
