Das Leben von Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo Buonarroti und Raffael von Urbino

This non-fiction book offers an in-depth examination of the life stories of three of the most significant artists of the Renaissance: Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo Buonarroti, and Raphael of Urbino. Based on Giorgio Vasari's "Lives," which is considered the oldest history of art and artists, it highlights the development of art during this period. Vasari, a contemporary of these masters, describes not only their artistic achievements but also their influence on art history. The biographies serve not only as a tribute to the individual talents of these artists but also as a reflection on the cultural and historical contexts in which they worked. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in art history and wanting to learn more about the personalities that have profoundly shaped the art world.
