Joaquim Machado de Castro was born in Coimbra on June 19, 1731 and died in Lisbon in 1822. He was a very important sculptor, leaving behind many works of recognized merit, including the Equestrian Statue of D.José I, which he describes in detail here, as well as the techniques, methods and materials employed. Illustrated with beautiful open engravings, the first two allegorical and the rest of the statue. Rare and highly sought after.
