Secret Lives of Great Artists: What Your Teachers Never Told You About Master Painters and Sculptors

With outraeous anecdotes about everyone from Leonardo (alleged sodomist) to Caraviaggio (convicted murderer) to Edward Hopper (alleged wife beater), Secret Lives of Great Artists recounts the seamy, steamy, and gritty history behind the great masters of international art. Youâ€™ll learn that Michelangeloâ€™s body odor was so bad, his assistants couldnâ€™t stand working for him; that Vincent van Gogh sometimes ate paint directly from the tube; and Georgia Oâ€™Keeffe loved to paint in the nude. This is one art history lesson youâ€™ll never forget!
