Michelangelo Models formerly in the Paul von Praun Collection Details
It seems unlikely, but in addition to the writings and sketches that he left behind, many of Michelangelo's terra cotta sculptural models have survived. Besides being objects of great beauty, they offer a unique insight into Michelangelo's creative process. This handsome book from Creelman & Drummond features large photographs -- many of them actual size -- in b&w and color of Michelangelo's models. The commentary by Paul James LeBrooy is intelligent and detailed. Large format hardback with dustcover, quarter cloth, 160 pp. Bibliography and index. Read more
