In sculpture, it is discerned in the change from High Renaissance frontality and simplicity of presentation to a search for multiplicity of views and silhouette, elongation of forms, and exaggerated effects of perspective and scale in reliefs. A Mannerist statue must be walked round, for all its angles of view are equally important. But it is quite clear that this definition cannot possibly describe all the works of art produced during the greater part of the sixteenth century, even in Rome and Florence, which are the true homes of Mannerism; there is a very great deal that escapes the net.
