About the Item

Published by the Royal Academy of Arts in 2012 on the occasion of their exhibition, Bronze. An extensive and finely photographed catalogue of the bronzes on show at this exhibition, ranging across several millennia from the earliest times to the present. With examples from all regions of the world, the catalogue shows how bronze developed from its use in tools and weaponry to a material for fine art. Essays by David Ekserdjian and others situate different aspects of this history from anonymous craftsmen to Renaissance masters such as Ghiberti and Cellini, through to modern artists such as Picasso, Brancusi and Bourgeois. Sumptuously illustrated and informative. Hardback, around 300 pages with 158 vivid colour plates and English language text throughout. A Near Fine copy.
