Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Rodari, Sculptor a Story of Pisa Ringing out in vibrating tones - solemn, clanging, or mellowly sweet - the bells of Pisa sounded the midday hour. Matteo Rodari paused in his work, with uplifted head, and listened to the throbbing echoes until they died away. He laid aside the narrow lapboard holding his few tools, then covered with a cloth the small block of Carrara marble upon which he had spent his morning´s effort, and rose to his feet. The air of the little shop was hot and close, though through the window to the east came a faint breeze, stirring the fine particles of marble-dust upon the narrow sill. Tiny drifts of the same white substance rested upon the bench, work-table and floor, like a thin fall of early wind-blown snow. Placed upon shelves protected by sliding doors of greenish glass, were rows of small replicas in different colored marbles, of Italy´s greatest art treasures. Spirited, life-like forms by Bologna, Donatello and Cellini stood side by side. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
