Benvenuto Cellini: Autobiography by Benvenuto Cellini
The vivid recollections of the famous Florentine goldsmith and sculptor (1500 - 71) who worked for the Papacy, the Medici and François I of France. A boisterous character, Cellini tells an exciting story of his violent adventures and dramatic misfortunes. As fresh as if it was written yesterday.
