"Tuscan Sculpture of the Fifteenth Century" by Estelle M. Hurll is a deep look into the sculptors and their creations during the Renaissance, mainly those from Tuscany, like Donatello and the Della Robbia family. Packed with pictures of important sculptures from that time, the included explanations share feelings and ideas found within the Renaissance sculptures. The start of the book shares the collection's goal, acting as a partner to another book about Greek sculpture, while pointing out the differences between both art periods. Hurll prepares readers for a complete look at the different types and special characteristics of Tuscan sculpture, like horse statues, grave monuments, and church decorations. She brings up important people and their major impacts, while also hinting at the bigger cultural rebirth of the Renaissance, predicting a careful consideration of the connection between art and the spiritual beliefs of the time.
