He loathed the sculptor Torregiano because he had broken Michelangelo's nose.His autobiography gives a quite extraordinarily vivid account of daily life in Renaissance Florence and Rome, its studios, its taverns, its violence, his loves, the kings, cardinals and popes who commission his works. At 27 he helps direct the defence of the castello San Angelo  his account of his imprisonment there under a mad castellan who thought he was a bat, his escape by an improvised rope, his recapture, his confinement in 'a cell of tarantulas and venomous worms' is a chapter of adventure equal to any in fact or fiction.\r\n\r\n Later he describes burning all his furniture to achieve sufficient heat to cast of one of his most famous works, Perseus and the Head of Medusa. Cellini's Life was translated by Goethe into German. The Everyman translation by Anne Macdonell 1903 is widely recognised as the most faithful to the energy and spirit of the original.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cfont color=\"red\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWe Use Stock Images\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBecause we have over 2 million items for sale we have to use stock images, this listing does not include the actual image of the item for sale.
