Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book compiles a collection of sculptor Antonio Canova's thoughts on art and technique, as collated from notes taken during the author's many conversations with him. Among the contributions, insights, and opinions on art, these writings illuminate Canova's approach to sculpture and show that he strongly believed in the study of nature and the imitation of the most perfect forms found within it. The author highlights that Canova's work can be seen as an attempt to reform sculpture and bring it back to the principles of the ancients, which he believed were based upon a faithful imitation of nature. The author also discusses Canova's views on the relationship between sculpture and painting, arguing that while painting is more complex in its elements, sculpture requires greater skill to execute. Overall, this book provides a valuable insight into the mind of Canova and his approach to sculpture, revealing him to be an artist who placed paramount importance on the pursuit of beauty and the study of nature.
