A catalogue featuring the unrivalled collection of post-medieval British sculpture in the V&A. The collection encompasses marble portrait busts and figures, sculpture in wood, terracotta, bronze, lead and plaster, as well as a number of outstanding sculptors' models. Its greatest strengths lie in works from the seventeenth, eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, and virtually every major sculptor active in Britain during this period is represented – among them Nicholas Stone, John Michael Rysbrack, Louis François Roubiliac, Joseph Wilton, John Flaxman and Alfred Stevens. A total of 770 pieces by 189 sculptors are included, more than a third of which have never been published before. The catalogue is wide-ranging and scholarly and will serve both as an invaluable work of reference and a history of the great tradition of sculpture in Britain over 400 years.
