The Prelude -- Eclecticism -- From Cubism to Constructivism -- The Vital Image -- A Diffusion of Styles.
Discusses the origin of the principles of sculpture and examines the work of great sculptors. Sir Herbert Read traces the development of modern sculpture from Rodin to the present day and brings order into the apparently chaotic proliferation of styles and techniques during this period.
