In the Renaissance, the use of bronze embodied power, authority and eternity and emulated the classical past. Yet it was one of the easiest materials to recycle, especially when the need for artillery was often pressing. Nonetheless the Italian Renaissance was a golden age for the production of sculpture in bronze, such as Ghiberti's Gates of Paradise, Verrocchio's Colleoni monument or Cellini's Perseus.0Bronze is generally defined as an alloy of copper and tin, but can contain zinc, lead and other elements. The term `bronze' is often applied to any copper-alloy sculpture. The Culture of Bronze draws on the latest research to explore the material and making of bronzes; the inter-relationships and collaboration between sculptor, founder and owner in the key centres of production, such as Florence, Padua, and the often over-looked city of Ferrara; as well as the inter-connections with Northern Europe. Encompassing works made for domestic, religious and civic environments, the book explores the symbolism of bronze, and the bronzes themselves, within their broader context in renaissance society." -- provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 650 0 $a Bronze sculpture, Renaissance $z Italy. 650 0 $a Bronze sculpture, Italian. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh87002652 650 7 $a Bronzeguss. $2 gnd 650 7 $a Bronzeplastik. $2 gnd 650 7 $a Plastik. $2 gnd 651 7 $a Italien. $2 gnd 650 7 $a 21.51 techniques and materials for sculpture. $0 (NL-LeOCL)077595238 $2 nbc 650 7 $a 21.52 history of sculpture. $0 (NL-LeOCL)077595246 $2 nbc 650 7 $a Bronze sculpture, Italian. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00839525 650 7 $a Bronze sculpture, Renaissance. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00839532 651 7 $a Italy. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204565 700 1 $a Webb, Will. 700 1 $a Cohen, Rebeka. 710 2 $a V&A Publishing. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2014137612 710 2 $a Victoria and Albert Museum. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n79066252 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191213022302.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=11AA8E6C101B11EA8DA14E4D97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
