The Last Judgement

Summary: Beautiful...BUT
Review: Rizzoli, and the Vatican, have produced a beautiful volume; the colour reproduction, binding, and printing are first rate BUT it seems that no-one bothered to read the text before the book was printed. In a not very careful reading of the text I found a number of glaring errors that cast very serious doubt on the reliability of any information contained in this book. Thus, I cannot give this book more than 2 stars.

I have been in contact with Rizzoli about this matter and they have provided me with some corrected information that I will share on request.

Summary: Cost $250 to buy the back wall of the Sistine chapel
Review: Yeah, maybe someone(nearly everynoe) will think this is an SO Expensive art book. But at first, there are so many details of the original work in this book, and more detail than you standing at the wall of the Sistine Chapel, even if you travel to Vatican, you can't see as clearly as see the pictures on the book; you can see the face of Ave Maria, the hand of Jesus, you will NOT see them with human-to-god view, but equal view. Second, print quality is nearly PERFECT. Third, the book had two volumes, one was filled with colourful illustrations, and the other is a bonus--the study of "the Last Judgement".
