Michelangelo's Design Principles, Particularly in Relation to Those of Raphael

Více o knize

The rediscovery of Erwin Panofsky's manuscript reveals his in-depth thesis on Michelangelo, originally submitted in 1920 and thought lost. This work, now available in English, offers a comprehensive analysis of Michelangelo's artistic style, contrasting it with Raphael's, and situating both within the broader context of Western art. It highlights Panofsky's early intellectual development and reflects a pivotal moment in art history when formalist interpretations began to dominate over biographical analyses, providing fresh insights into the High Renaissance.
