"Schon geraume Zeit schmückten unsterbliche Steinbildwerke reich gereiht die Goldene Pforte des Domes zu Freiberg in Sachsen, und längst waren die Dorne von Hildesheim, von Naumburg, Straßburg und Bamberg mit plastischen Gebilden bevölkert und umkränzt, die zu den genialsten Schöpfungen deutschen Geistes gehören und uns heute jeder Zeitlichkeit entrückt erscheinen." Der Kunsthistoriker Heinrich Höhn (1881-1942) beschreibt, ausgehend von ersten Plastiken in Nürnberg Ende des 13. Jahrhunderts, die Geschichte des Handwerkes. Er verknüpft für die Darstellung der Bildhauerkunst 112 Abbildungen und Erläuterungen.

Nachdruck des Originals von 1925, bietet diese Ausgabe einen Einblick in die zeitgenössischen Themen und Stilrichtungen der damaligen Zeit. Ideal für Liebhaber historischer Literatur und Sammler.
