The Herefordshire School of Romanesque Sculpture
註釋The diversity of sculpture preserved at the Herefordshire School has fascinated art historians for many years. Although much of the sculpture has been published and discussed in academic journals, there has been no comprehensive work on the subject - until now. Thurlby focuses attention on the sculpture form the school in its building context, whilst also seeking parallels from other buildings and in other media. This book will appeal to both the specialist and non-specialist due to its style and wide ranging discussion. Thurlby draws in comparisons from Britain and abroad, discusses the inspiration for many of the pieces, the patrons and the motives for their patronage, the training and role of craftsmen, and so on. Over 240 illustrations complement the text.
