Bernini. The sculptures
English Text. Roma, 2013; paperback, pp. 64, 44 col. ill. and plates, cm 16,5x23,5. This book examines Bernini's entire sculptural output, ranging from the years of his training in the workshop of his father, Pietro, where he produced his first works, to the years of his maturity and fame, as well as dwelling on the celebrated youthful works like Apollo and Daphne (1622-25) and David (1623-24). Bernini reigned supreme in the baroque period, participating in all of 17th-century Rome's leading construction projects, such as the Fabbrica di San Pietro and the decoration of Ponte Sant'Angelo, and creating an astounding quantity of works, chapels, altars, statues, fountains, funerary monuments and portrait busts, most of which are reproduced in colour in the pages of this book
