Description
Summary:"The words 'Michelangelo's Moment' in the title of this little book mean the moment and manner in which Michelangelo Buonarroti's thought made its appearance in his sculptures, paintings and drawings. We have borrowed them from the title and concept of J. G. A. Pocock's Machiavellian Moment. We also use these words to signify the particular moment when Michelangelo's lifelong approach to the theme of the Virgin Mary comes to an emotional and dramatic moment in the cartoon that is now in the British Museum, but known mistakenly as the Epifania."--P. 11.
