SCULPTURE THROUGH THE AGES

A companion volume to Pottery Through the Ages, this surveys the development of sculpture from neolithic rock engravings to modern wire designs. Every civilization is represented with pen and ink drawings of its outstanding sculpture. The works of Phidias, Donatello, Michelangelo, Bernini, Rodin, Maillol, Epstein and Moore introduce the novice to some of the greatest sculptors of all time. The artist's materials, his technique, the effects of his environment add the necessary historical dimension to a competent study for the serious student.
