The Sculpture of Donatello

The first edition of this book (2 vols.) won the Charles Rufus Morey Award for 1959. The Times Literary Supplement wrote of it, "The sculpture of Donatello (which Lanyi's vision and Professor Janson's clear-headedness and assiduity have done so much to codify and to explain in this admirable and immensely learned book) is not merely the first body of work in which the crative thought processes are recognizably related to our own but the first great self-portrait in the history of art." This second edition makes the book avilable at amuch lower price and in one volume by reducing the number of plates. The text is complete and the bibliography on the sculptures has been brought up to date. Originally published in 1963. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.
