Sinopsis
Excerpt from Modelling, Vol. 2: A Guide for Teachers and Students
This book is one that ought to warn superficial students that they must labour, that the Art of Sculpture is so difficult and exacting in demands of accuracy as well as of good taste, that before entering in her fields, it may be well to remember that ancient saying in a very wise Book not sufficiently studied, Take off thy shoes from off thy feet, the ground on which thou standest is holy ground.
It is as if Professor Lanteri had that motto before his mind when he prepared these pages of words and illustrations. He has approached his subject seriously, religiously, as a teacher and as a workman; his readers must read, mark, learn, in the same spirit of reverence for the Art of which Lanteri is so distinguished an ornament.
Though I am a painter by trade, as colloquialism would express it, the other great sister Arts, Architecture and Sculp ture, have, from my boyhood, in a measure, run alongside of my craftsmanship as a painter; had this not been so, I should not have ventured to use my pen on this occasion.
I know the difficulties, I know the charms, I know the mazes into which the mysterious spirit of Form may lead or mislead.

Excerpt from Modelling, Vol. 2: A Guide for Teachers and Students
By all students of Sculpture, Professor Lanteri's admirable book must be welcomed with enthusiasm. At a time when it is more or less the fashion in many Art schools to admit "impressionism," alas! even in the noble and restrained art of sculpture, it is indeed refreshing to read these pages, written not only with healthy vivacity, but with a thoroughness of knowledge, aye, more, a scientific insight uncommon in a tentative and experimental period of both teaching and learning.
It is the more satisfactory as coming from the professor of the Royal College of Art, whose school therein has produced so many admirable sculptors, and where at this moment all the sound principles so elaborately set forth in this book are being practically initiated. When I say practically initiated I mean that there is no axiom illustrated on these pages which is not forcibly maintained in practice in the school which is lucky enough to have Professor Lanteri as professor.
