About the book

"It is about how people looked at sculpture and how we may look at it today. It is about the ways the seventeenth-cnetury beholder engaged with the apparent life of the sculpted figure, but also with the cold hardness of the marble, and how the sculptor invited him to do so. It is about what texts may tell us about these things, and about how we can use psychology to bring these things together."--Preface, p. 7.
