The Manual of Ancient Sculpture is a comprehensive guide to the art of sculpture from ancient times, written by Pierre Paris and originally published in 1890. The book covers the history of sculpture from its earliest beginnings in ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia, through the classical period in Greece and Rome, and on to the medieval and Renaissance eras in Europe. The author provides detailed descriptions of the techniques and materials used by sculptors in each period, as well as the styles and themes that were popular at the time. The book is illustrated with numerous black and white photographs and drawings that showcase some of the most famous examples of ancient sculpture, including the Parthenon frieze and the Venus de Milo. This is an essential reference for anyone interested in the history of art and sculpture, and a valuable resource for scholars and students of art history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
