"Arguably the greatest sculptor of all time, Donatello (c. 1386-1466) was at the vanguard of a revolution in sculptural practice in the early Renaissance. Combining ideas from classical and medieval sculpture to create innovative sculptural forms, Donatello had an unparalleled ability to portray emotions in works intended to inspire spiritual devotion. Pieces such as the penitent St. Mary Magdalene and the bronze of David remain deeply affecting to audiences today. Working in marble, bronze, wood, terracotta, and stucco, he contributed to major commissions of church and state, was an intimate of the Medici family and their circle in Florence, and was highly sought after in other Italian cities. This book explores Donatello's extraordinary creativity within the vibrant artistic and cultural context of 15th-century Italy, surveying his early connection with goldsmiths' work and the collaborative nature of his workshop and processes. It also reflects on Donatello's legacy, reviewing how his sculpture inspired subsequent generations in the later Renaissance and beyond." Texts written by Amy R. Bloch, Alison Wright, Timothy Verdon, Marc Bormand, John T. Paoletti, Whitney Kerr-Lewis with a foreword by Tristram Hunt./ Published in conjunction with the exhibition Donatello: sculpting the Renaissance, 11 February - 11 June 2023, at the Victoria and Albert Museum, London./ Includes bibliographical references (pages 269-281) and index.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. Fifteenth-century Italy witnessed sweeping innovations in the art of sculpture. Sculptors rediscovered new types of images from classical antiquity and invented new ones, devised novel ways to finish surfaces, and pushed the limits of their materials to new expressive extremes. The Art of Sculpture in Fifteenth-Century Italy surveys the sculptural production created by a range of artists throughout the peninsula. It offers a comprehensive overview of Italian sculpture during a century of intense creativity and development. Here, nineteen historians of Quattrocento Italian sculpture chart the many competing forces that led makers, patrons, and viewers to invest sculpture with such heightened importance in this time and place. Methodologically wide-ranging, the essays, specially commissioned for this volume, explore the vast range of techniques and media (stone, metal, wood, terracotta, and stucco) used to fashion works of sculpture. They also examine how viewers encountered those objects, discuss varying approaches to narrative, and ponder the increasing contemporary interest in the relationship between sculpture and history. Featuring essays by top scholars and an expansive introduction, this volume surveys fifteenth-century Italian sculpture. It offers the most comprehensive treatment of the topic to date, in its range of artists and media, and its geography: from great centers like Florence and Venice to lesser-studied cities like Milan and Naples.
