Résumé:

This is a superb collection - 160 pages of exquisitely printed photographs by a master photographer of what are probably the most famous sculptures in the world, endlessly copied and universally recognized - Michelangelo's two seated Medici dukes (Giuliano de' Medici and Lorenzo de' Medici) and the reclining figures of night, day, dawn, and dusk. Accompanying essays by Bruno Santi, director of the Medici Chapel from 1982 to 1992, and by the art historians Antonio Paolucci and James Beck, provide the historical background to the Chapel, especially the Medici's family mausoleum, and explain how the concept changed over the fifteen years when Michelangelo was working on it.
