Synopsis

The Chapel Hill Press is proud to announce J.B. Brown s Angelo and the Master. The works of Michelangelo in the Sistine Chapel are among the most famous in history. The images are models of faith and artistic grandiosity. When studying Michelangelo s breathtaking work, we can t help but be taken aback by its splendor.The story is about Angelo, a church mouse who lives in the Sistine Chapel in the sixteenth century. One day, wiling away the time, little Angelo witnesses the arrival of a master: Michelangelo. Over the years that pass, Angelo the mouse watches as that master fills the walls of the chapel with images destined to become an integral part of the Vatican, of Catholicism, and of Western culture. With Angelo and the Master, J.B. Brown uses gorgeous drawings to render Angelo the mouse in his Sistine Chapel with wonderful lushness. Through the story, Brown hopes to teach children an appreciation for the beauty of Michelangelo s masterpiece, the Vatican, and art in general. After all, who better to grasp the pure magnificence of the Sistine Chapel than those of the purest minds?
