Sculpture in Print, 1480-1600 is the first in-depth study dedicated
to the intriguing history of the translation of statues and reliefs
into print. The multitude of engravings, woodcuts and etchings show
a highly creative handling of the 'original' antique or
contemporary work of art. The essays in this volume reflect these
various approaches to and challenges of translating sculpture in
print. They analyze foremost the beginnings of the phenomenon in
Italian and Northern Renaissance prints and they highlight by means
of case studies amongst many other topics the interrelated
terminology between sculpture and print, lost models in print, the
inventive handling of fragments, as well as the transformation of
statues into narrative contexts.
