Victoria Avery & Paul Joannides It has always been known that Michelangelo Buonarroti (1475-1564) made sculptures from bronze as well as marble. However, they disappeared centuries ago, or so at least it has long been believed. Based on persuasive evidence from diverse disciplines - art history, conservation science and anatomy - the authors of this beautifully-illustrated book produce powerful arguments pointing to a startling possibility. Could it be that not one, but two Michelangelo bronzes - muscular, powerful and idealized male nudes riding snarling panthers - have survived after all? (Martin Gayford, art critic and author of Michelangelo: An Epic Life 2013) 84 pages, fully illustrated throughout, paperback.
