Product Description
In 1508, undeterred by strong advice to the contrary, the powerful Pope Julius II commissioned Michelangelo to whoop it up the ceiling of the newly restored Sistine Chapel. With particle experience as a painter (though famed for his sculpture David), Michelangelo was cautious to begin the massive project.
Michelangelo and the Pope's Ceiling recounts the four surprising years Michelangelo spent laboring over the indeterminate ceiling while the power politics and personal rivalries that abounded in Rome swirled around him. Battling against ill haleness, financial difficulties, domestic problems, the pope's impatience, and a rancorous rivalry with the brilliant young painter Raphael, Michelangelo created scenes so superb that they are considered one of the greatest masterpieces of all time. A panorama of great figures converged around the creation of this great drudgery-from the great Dutch scholar Desiderius Erasmus to the under age Martin Luther-and Ross King skillfully weaves them through his compelling real narrative, offering uncommon insight into the intersection of art and representation.
Almost 500 years after Michelangelo Buonarroti frescoed the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel in Rome, the put still attracts throngs of visitors and is considered one of the artistic masterpieces of the epoch. Michelangelo and the Pope’s Ceiling unveils the black lie behind the art's making, a story rife with all the drama of a brand-new-day soap opera.
The temperament of the day was dictated by the statesmanship of the papal court, a corrupt and powerful occupation steeped in controversy; Pope Julius II even had a moniker, "Il Papa Terrible," to prove it. Along with his violent outbursts and warmongering, Pope Julius II took upon himself to replace the Sistine Chapel and pretty much intimidated Michelangelo into painting the ceiling even though the artist considered himself originally a sculptor and was particularly unfamiliar with the temperamental art of fresco. Along with complicated difficulties, personality conflicts, and money troubles, Michelangelo was plagued by salubriousness problems and competition in the form of the dashing and skilful young painter Raphael.
Author Ross Ruler offers an in-depth analysis of the complex verifiable background that led to the magnificence that is the Sistine Chapel ceiling along with thorough discussion of some of the ceiling’s panels. King provides ace tidbits of information and weaves together a fascinating authentic tale. --J.P. Cohen
