Editorial Reviews
Book Description
All the information a student of sculpture needs in the early stages of training appears here, in a convenient single volume that also offers professional sculptors an invaluable reference. Three years in the preparation, this book synthesizes the author's 30 years of teaching and practicing sculpture. In her clear, conversational, and highly readable manner, she encourages readers to develop their own styles rather than imitate others, insisting only that they build a sound foundation. Her topics include modelling from life, comparative anatomy, modelling and casting a portrait head, drapery, ceramic sculpture, stone and marble carving, wood carving, and bronze casting. Students and other art lovers will find a vast range of inspiring sculpture depicted in these pages, ranging from classic to modern. Unabridged republication of the edition originally published by Watson-Guptill Publications, Inc., New York, 1948. Introduction. Suggested Reading. Index. 196 halftones. 96 diagrams.
