About the Author
Benvenuto Cellini (1500-1571) was a celebrated goldsmith and distinguished sculptor whose powerful talent can still be seen in such works as his bronze statue of Perseus and his gold salt cellar made for Francis 1. He worked for a variety of patrons, including Popes Clement VII and Paul III.

Soft Cover Full Gloss. Condition: Fine. No Jacket. ### Benvenuto Cellini - Autobiography 1988 edition ### ## THIS BOOK: Classified as FINE: This copy is the 1988 edition. The first translation was in 1956; there have been 16 reprints, including this 1988 edition. Reiterating just what an essential and remarkable autobiography it is. ## Benvenuto Cellini was a celebrated goldsmith and distinguished sculptor, yet it is on his autobiography that much of his fame rests. Begun in Florence when he was fifty-eight, it was primarily intended to be the story of his life and art, his tragedies and triumphs. However, as he was an active participant in the wars and struggles of the period and drew his friends and enemies from all levels of society, it became a vivid and convincing portrait of the manners and morals of both of the rulers of the sixteenth century and their subjects. ## ## With enviable powers of abuse and an irrepressible sense of humour reflected in an equally vigorous and extravagant style, Cellini has provided an intriguing and unrivalled glimpse into the palaces and prisons of the Italy of Michelangelo and the Medici. ## .## INTERNATIONAL BUYERS? ----- PLEASE contact me for a shipping quotation.
