这本书文笔引人入胜，插图丰富，为读者近距离“从脚手架上”观赏梵蒂冈一些最伟大的文艺复兴时期壁画提供了机会。

 

从15世纪末开始，意大利文艺复兴时期最伟大的艺术家们被召集到罗马，装饰梵蒂冈的墙壁和天花板。资深修复师毛里齐奥·德·卢卡（Maurizio De Luca）在梵蒂冈博物馆工作了四十年，其中包括十五年作为绘画修复实验室主任的任期。他亲自监督了过去半个世纪一些最重要的修复工作，包括西斯廷教堂墙壁上佩鲁吉诺、波提切利等人的壁画；波吉亚公寓内的平托里乔壁画；拉斐尔室；以及米开朗基罗在宗座宫殿保罗礼拜堂内的最后两幅壁画。

 

在这本通俗易懂且插图丰富的书中，德·卢卡传授了只能通过近距离个人观察才能获得的知识。读者可以获得一个惊人的亲密视角，这一视角揭示了每位艺术家独特的表达挑战、选择和技巧，并展示了保护过程如何丰富了对这些标志性作品的理解和解读。

 

Engagingly written and profusely illustrated, this book offers readers a close-up "view from the scaffolding" of some of the greatest Renaissance wall paintings at the Vatican.

 

Beginning in the late 1400s, the greatest artists of Renaissance Italy were summoned to Rome, where they decorated the walls and ceilings of the Vatican. Expert restorer Maurizio De Luca spent his forty-year career in the Vatican Museums, including fifteen years as head restorer of the Painting Restoration Laboratory. He personally oversaw some of the most important restorations of the last half century, including wall paintings by Perugino, Botticelli, and others on the walls of the Sistine Chapel; the Pintoricchio wall paintings in the Borgia Apartments; the Raphael Rooms; and the last two frescoes by Michelangelo, in the Pauline Chapel at the Apostolic Palace.

 

In this accessible and copiously illustrated book, De Luca conveys the kind of knowledge that can only be derived from close personal observation. The reader is offered a stunningly intimate perspective that illuminates the distinctive expressive challenges, choices, and techniques of each artist and demonstrates how the conservation process enriches the understanding and interpretation of these iconic works.
