Reviews

Rebecca Wade's clearly written and thorough study of Domenico Brucciani illuminates his practice as one of the most important formatori in the nineteenth century, while at the same time exploring in a compelling way plaster casting more generally. This book must be required reading for all those interested in the production of sculpture in Britain in the nineteenth century. * Marjorie Trusted, Senior Curator of Sculpture, Victoria and Albert Museum, London, UK *
