The Lost Michelangelo
Between 1492 and 1494 Michelangelo carved a wooden crucifix for the church of Santo Spirito in Florence. It 'disappeared' from the church 100 years later and since then has always been listed as one of his lost works. In September of last year it was rediscovered in the same church by a German art historian, Dr. Margaret Lisner.
Michael Ayrton tells the story of its discovery and the dramatic circumstances of its making; and watches its restoration in the Uffizi Gallery, Florence.
