Michael Angelo Buonarroti

With translations of the life of the master by his scholar, Ascanio Condivi, and three dialogues from the Portuguese by Francisco D'Ollanda. Ascanio Condivi, a pupil and friend of the masters, he had long been collecting materials for his record of Vita di Michelangelo Buonarroti. Of all the many lives of Michael Angelo that have been written, that by Ascanio Condivi is the most valuable. For English readers Holroyd's translation is considered quite useful.
