Description: Oxford: Ashmolean Museum, 2014. 3 vols. 30cm., hardcover, slipcase, ca. 1200 illustrations, most in color. Volume One: Sculptures in Metal (344pp) ; Volume Two: Sculptures in Stone, Clay, Ivory, Bone and Wood (372pp) ; Volume Three: Plaquettes (452pp).

Summary: The Ashmolean’s collection of European sculpture is among the finest of its kind in the world. The collection was built up over four centuries from the dawn of English art collecting through to the Victorian period, which saw the arrival of one of the world’s great collections of Renaissance bronzes and other sculpture assembled by the scholar-connoisseur C.D.E. Fortnum, as well as further gifts and occassional purchases to the present day. The catalogue covers the Ashmolean’s collection dating from 1200 to around 1540. From Romanesque bronzes and Gothic ivories to High Renaissance sculpture, this three-volume set is a meticulous and comprehensive record of over 500 pieces, each one fully illustrated.
