The Life of Michelangelo Buonarroti by John Addington Symonds is a deeply researched biography of one of the greatest artists in history, Michelangelo Buonarroti. Symonds, a respected historian and critic, presents a detailed and authoritative account of Michelangelo's life and works, capturing both the genius and the human complexity of the Italian Renaissance master.The biography spans Michelangelo's prolific career, from his early days in Florence to his later years in Rome. It covers his monumental contributions to art and architecture, including his sculptural masterpieces like the David and the Pieta, his work on the Sistine Chapel ceiling, and the design of St. Peter's Basilica. Symonds delves into Michelangelo's methods and struggles, portraying him not only as a masterful artist but also as a deeply religious, often solitary figure who wrestled with his own emotions and the demands of patrons like the powerful Medici family and several popes.
