Synopsis:

Michelangelo's "Three Pieta", now in Rome, Florence and Milan are introduced in this volume and captured in their entirety and close-up in various photographs. The St Peter's "Pieta" reflects the classical ideals of the Renaissance: calm and order. Traces of expressive drama appear in the "Pieta" of Santa Maria del Fiore, culminating in the unfinished Rondanini "Pieta", a tormented figure reflecting the artist's religious anxiety.
