Catalogue of a collection of Italian sculpture and other plastic art of the Renaissance
This is a 1913 exhibition catalogue from the Burlington Fine Arts Club in London, printed by the Chiswick Press, listing a private collection of Italian Renaissance sculpture and other plastic art. The four photographs show bronze statuettes and a bust photographed against a plain pale ground, with the figures lit from one side. A designer might take from them the sculpted surfaces, the contrapposto stance of standing male figures, and the way patinated bronze reads in soft monochrome.
