About the book >.>.> Eighteenth-century art has been the focus of some of the liveliest debates within the field of art history in recent years, but sculpture, which occupied a central place within contemporary visual culture between 1700 and 1820, has been largely ignored. Figured in Marble aims to put sculpture firmly back into the picture. By outlining some new approaches to the remarkable range of works that were made, collected and viewed during this period, the book shows how our understanding of eighteenth-century art can be greatly enriched by considering sculpture as an integral and major part of that culture. Made up of a series of case studies, linked by sections looking at the methodologies employed in addressing sculpture, this book examines issues such as the way in which the history of sculpture has been written, how we might consider the design and making of sculpture in a variety of materials, the various types and genres of sculpture, and the collecting, setting and viewing of such works. Together these case studies c.…

This work is a study of 18th-century British sculpture, illustrated with sculptures from both the V&A and the J. Paul Getty Museum and also many impressive pieces from private collections and churches.
