Michelangelo a jeho zázraky
„Keď som tesal sochu Dávida, bol som plný nadšenia a mal som pocit, akoby mi ruku viedol sám Boh,“ hovorí vo svojom životopise najslávnejší umelec všetkých čias, Michelangelo Buonarroti. V prvej osobe rozpráva o tom, aký bol v mladých rokoch divoch, ale aj o tom, čo ho trápilo i tešilo, prečo mal málo priateľov a prečo tak neúnavne hľadal krásu. Najprv bol sochárom, potom maliarom a napokon architektom. Dnes je jeho dielo kultúrnym dedičstvom celého ľudstva.
Kniha zo série životopisov slávnych vedcov (Myšlienky géniov), ktoré napísal a vtipne zilustroval taliansky spisovateľ Luca Novelli tak, ako keby ich rozprávali oni sami. Je to zábavný a strhujúci spôsob, ako spoznať velikánov, ktorí ovplyvnili dejiny ľudstva a zároveň priblížiť vedu i umenie mladým čitateľom.
Pre deti od 8 rokov.
