Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Certain Tragical Discourses of Bandello, Vol. 1 Vasari, in a well-known passage, tells the story of the artistic awakening of the young Niccolo Pisano. The youth, he says, was at work one day in the Duomo at Pisa, when his attention was arrested by certain pieces of antique sculpture, ´spoils of marbles,´ which the Pisan fleet had brought from Greece. It was, he would have us believe, the contemplation of these works of long-dead masters that led the sculptor´s apprentice to become the exponent of a new manner in art, the inaugurator of a great artistic movement. Modem critics have laboriously demonstrated the improbability of this story. They have shown that there are strong reasons for believing that it is one of those myths that owe their preservation to the credulity of the Aretine artist. And yet, whether it be a myth or not, it enshrines an eternal truth. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
