In the pantheon of Western art, no master occupies a higher place than Michelangelo. This collection at the Royal Library at Windsor includes elaborately finished drawings made by the master as gifts for friends or designs for other artists’ projects. This volume examines twenty-two examples of Michelangelo’s draughtsmanship, and fifty-one works by his contemporaries and followers, demonstrating the impact of an artist referred to as divine, even in his own lifetime on the imagination, style and imagery of his era.
