The relationship between sculpture and pedestal is at the intersection of a number of art-historical disciplines, ranging from the history of design, architecture, and urbanism to museum studies, yet because of its supporting role it has remained a largely neglected and unstudied field. This book includes essays that range from sixteenth-century Venice to twenty-first-century London, providing a fascinating variety of approaches. The contributors include Victoria Avery, Malcolm Baker, Etienne Jollet, Charlotte Chastel-Rousseau, Sue Malvern, Alison Yarrington, Philip Ward-Jackson, David Getsy, and Jon Wood.
