Description

Figurative sculpture offers a demanding form of artistic expression that requires rigorous technical training. This comprehensive guide provides serious students with the necessary skills to bridge the gap between artistic concept and figurative realization.

The book covers over three thousand years of studio lore, offering detailed instructions on modelling a head from a cast model, sculpting a bust from a live model, and modelling the figure from nature. It also explores principles of composition in relief and in the round, as well as techniques for sculpting in relief, drapery, and medals.

With its authoritative guide to technical information, this book is an invaluable resource for those seeking to develop their skills in figurative sculpture.
