Another World: The Sistine Chapel Ceiling and Michelangelo Buonarroti - Paperback

by Elaine L. Wilson (Author)

He brought artistic creation to heights of achievement and standards to which artists for generations since have struggled to achieve. The four years he spent painting the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel yielded a gift people still behold with breathlessness. What deep waters ran within that buoyed him to his level of genius? Who was this talented man whose writing reveals he feared his efforts had fallen short of God's glory and God's plan for him?
