Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Short description:
The fullest catalogue of the drawings by and after Michelangelo in the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford.
MoreLong description:
This volume comprises the fullest and most detailed catalogue of the drawings by and after Michelangelo in the Ashmolean Museum. It is one of the most important collections of drawings by this artist, which also includes drawings after his own by contemporaries that shed light on lost works as well as the artist's reputation and influence during the sixteenth century. The introduction provides a history of Michelangelo's drawings generally and also surveys the various types of drawing practised by Michelangelo and an account of his development as a draughtsman. Most of the drawings in the Ashmolean Museum came from the collection of Sir Thomas Lawrence, and this book contains a detailed appendix that traces the histories of all of the drawings by or after Michelangelo that Lawrence owned, both before he acquired them and after they were dispersed.
"Joannides offers an elegant, detailed, and throughly researched catalogue of these works, one that scrupulously takes into account previous such efforts, adding to them...while paving new ground in the discussion of copies of lost drawings...The volume is extremely manageable and clearly organized and written...An important contribution to Michelangelo scholarship that illuminates a key collection of sketches."
Duke Pesta, Renaissance Quarterly
