Lectures On Sculpture

This book collects the influential lectures on art and aesthetics delivered by John Flaxman, a prominent British sculptor of the late 18th and early 19th centuries. In his talks, Flaxman explores the principles of design that underlie all great works of art, and offers detailed analyses of specific sculptures by famous artists like Michelangelo and Bernini. His insights into the creative process and the nature of beauty continue to inspire artists and scholars today.
