Creating Sculpture: Renaissance Drawings and Models

Edited by art professor Michael Cole, art historian Ana Debenedetti, and curator Peta Motture, Creating Sculpture is a fully illustrated collection of essays by distinguished scholars and experts in the field, focusing on the process of sculptural design in 15th- and 16th-century Europe.

It was during the Renaissance period that sculptors' models, together with drawings, were first assembled by avid collectors fascinated by the tangible evidence of the creative process of the artist. This publication arises from a 2017 conference and is the third and final Robert H. Smith Renaissance Sculpture volume.

Includes color images from The Metropolitan Museum of Art, the National Gallery of Art, the Brooklyn Museum, the Museum of Fine Arts Boston, the Harvard Art Museum, and the Getty
