The Sculptor of Bruges by Maria Hall is a historical fiction novel set in the city of Bruges, Belgium during the late 15th century. The story follows the life of a young sculptor named Colin who dreams of creating a masterpiece that will make him famous. However, his ambition is hindered by his lack of funds and the social restrictions of his time. Colin's life takes a turn when he meets a wealthy and influential patron named Pieter Van Heere who commissions him to create a sculpture for the city's cathedral. As Colin works on his masterpiece, he becomes increasingly obsessed with his art and neglects his relationships with his friends and family. The novel also explores the political and social tensions of the time, including the power struggle between the Spanish and the Flemish, and the religious conflicts between Catholics and Protestants. Overall, The Sculptor of Bruges is a captivating tale of ambition, love, and sacrifice set against the backdrop of a vibrant and turbulent city during the Renaissance era.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
