| Description: |
Classical woodcarving is often seen
on antique and reproduction furniture in relief panels, scrolls,
foliage, fans, sunbursts, shells, finials and other forms.
It is also evident in classical architecture, an area previously
covered by Fred Wilbur in his book Carving Architectural Detail
in Wood: The Classical Tradition. This latest offering from
the US woodcarver of 25 years standing covers design, drawing
and techniques appropriate to both uses, with the projects
including many of the above forms. Carving techniques are
covered in a useful way but this book gives equal emphasis
to design and drawing. The author�s own carvings decorate
many prestigious public buildings in the US and woodcarvers
will appreciate this journey with a master craftsman as he
discusses and demonstrates work from the Greek, Roman, Romanesque,
Renaissance and Neoclassical periods.
