Nicola Pisano was a much admired thirteenth-century Italian
sculptor and architect, often considered to be the founder of
modern sculpture. Within this 1938 text, G. H. and E. R. Crichton
begin by giving a biographical background of Pisano, before looking
at those early sculptors whose works may have inspired him. In the
book's second part, the Crichtons write in detail about the
sculptures of Pisano, describing the pulpits at Pisa and Siena as
well as the Fountain at Perugia. The Crichtons also discuss those
pieces often accredited to Pisano which seem unlikely to be his.
Finally, they share their conclusions on Pisano's influence on
Italian sculpture. These fascinating accounts of Pisano's life and
works are supplemented by numerous illustrative plates. This book
will appeal to scholars of art and sculpture in general, as well as
of Pisano and thirteenth-century sculpture more specifically.
