Résumé:

"The Chapel of St. Anthony at the Santo and the Development of Venetian Renaissance Sculpture is an interdisciplinary study of one of the most important pilgrimage sites in Western Christendom. The chapel is also universally acknowledged as one of the major monuments of Renaissance Italy. Here, for the first time since antiquity, a chapel was decorated with a monumental, narrative sculptural cycle carved entirely from marble. The use of this material on such an unprecedented scale reveals the learned antiquarian milieu in which the redecoration scheme was conceived. Spanning nearly a hundred years, the project engaged the major architects and sculptors of the sixteenth century, including Tullio and Antonio Lombardo, Andrea Briosco, known as Riccio, Jacopo Sansovino, Giovanni Maria Falconetto, Danese Cattaneo, Girolamo Campagna, and Tiziano Aspetti. It effectively serves the modern scholar as a case study in the evolution of Venetian Renaissance sculpture at a critical period in its development, from the late fifteenth to the late sixteenth century. Featuring a new corpus of photographs of the chapel, published here for the first time, this volume also includes an appendix of 125 documents newly transcribed and analyzed."--Jacket.
