Book Synopsis


Trade Review
"Eloquently translated. . . This is a deeply moving book about a deeply moving artist. . . . Panofsky’s analyses carry compelling explanatory power because they are rooted in sensitive observation. . . . [The] presentation offered here takes the readers closer to Michelangelo the artist. We acutely feel the engagement behind the methodology"---Matthias Wivel, The Burlington Magazine
"[Gerda Panofsky’s] invaluable, sixty-five page introduction provides a fascinating account of Panofsky’s life and career and his intellectual trajectory, with special regard to his engagement with Michelangelo studies and his gradual disengagement from that early passion, especially after his move to the United States. . . . Written about two of the most significant artists of all time, Panofsky’s Michelangelo’s Design Principles offers us a welcome opportunity to observe the maturing of one of the great figures of Art and Intellectual History."---William E. Wallace, Journal of Art Historiography
