Gothic Sculpture, 1140 1300 (The Yale University Press Pelican History of Art Series)

This beautiful and authoritative book is the first to examine the development of Gothic sculpture throughout Europe. It discusses not only the most famous monuments-such as the cathedrals of Chartres, Amiens, and Reims, Westminster Abbey, and the Siena Duomo-but also less familiar buildings in France, England, Italy, Germany, Spain, and Scandinavia. Numerous illustrations-including photographs taken specially for the book-accompany the text.
