Sculpture - From Antiquity to the Present Day "Text and illustrations form a remarkable whole, on a theme which has never been subjected to such a precise synthetic study." -Beaux Arts Magazine, Paris Ranging from ancient to contemporary sculpture, this book is the first study of the history of sculpture to present such an original and comprehensive approach . Taking the sculptures out of the museum context (and thus off of their proverbial pedestals), this volume presents a completely new view which affords enlightening comparisons between eras and genres. This remarkable work is indispensable for artlovers of all tastes and disciplines.
