Sculpture - From Antiquity to the Present Day

TASCHEN's 25th anniversary - Special edition!


Ranging from ancient to contemporary sculpture, this bookis the first study of the history of sculpture to present such an original and comprehensive approach. Taking the sculptures out of the museum context (and thus off of their proverbial pedestals), Sculpture presents a completely new view which affords enlightening comparisons between erasand genres. This remarkable work is indispensable for artlovers of all tastes and disciplines.

"...the only book I know which offers an extensive anthology of images of all periods of Western sculpture-and at a budget price... Like a headless and limbless Greek torso, this book more than makes up for its imperfections."
