The Treatises Of Benvenuto Cellini On Goldsmithing And Sculpture is a book edited and translated by C. R. Ashbee. The book consists of two treatises written by the renowned Italian artist and goldsmith, Benvenuto Cellini. The first treatise, On Goldsmithing, provides a detailed account of the techniques and tools used in the craft of goldsmithing, including the preparation of metals, the casting of objects, and the engraving and finishing of surfaces. The second treatise, On Sculpture, focuses on the art of sculpting, including the selection of materials, the design and execution of works, and the principles of proportion and anatomy. Both treatises are written in a clear and engaging style, and offer valuable insights into the practices and aesthetics of Renaissance art. Ashbee's translation and editing of the treatises provide readers with a comprehensive and accessible resource for understanding the work of one of the most important artists of the Italian Renaissance.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
