Publisher's Synopsis
This illustrated volume represents the only exhaustive monograph on the life and work of the Italian sculptor Andrea di Michelangelo Ferrucci (Fiesole, 1559 - Florence, 1626). The artist, appreciated by the Medici court, has been the subject of a progressive rediscovery since the 1980s. He is considered as a leading actor of the late Mannerist artistic tradition, while moving his paces towards the Baroque.
