Description
Originally published in 1914, and previously delivered as lectures to students at the Royal Academy Art School in 1913, this book by Charles Waldstein, then director of the Fitzwilliam Museum, provides an introduction to the study of sculpture. The text is richly illustrated with a variety of examples ranging from the earliest Daedalic forms through classical and Hellenistic art to the more modern examples of Meunier and Millet. This book will be of value to anyone seeking an introduction to sculpture or with an interest in art history.
