Michelange­lo and Sebastiano

-

This show focuses on the “creative partnershi­p” between one of art’s truly great names and the less well-known figure of Sebastiano del Piombo. Two pivotal early works of Michelange­lo – the white marble roundel of the Taddei Tondo, and the Pieta from St Peter’s in Rome – are thrilling to see, while the paintings of Sebastiano reveal an artist who excelled at dramatical­ly lit, monumental compositio­ns.
