Title: BOSCH : The Garden of Earthly Delights
Author: Zuffi, Stefano
Price: Not Available
ISBN: 9788866480884
Description: Milano: 24 ORE Cultura, 2012. 24cm., hardcover, 96pp., 31 color illus. Summary : What we know about the life of Hieronymus Bosch gives us no inkling whatsoever of the explosion of fantasy, the weird and wonderful world, and the bizarre devilry in his oeuvre. The destination and function of his most important works are still a complete mystery. What was the purpose of the triptychs populated by seething masses of figures? Who could have immersed themselves in that world of symbols, references and allusions? The master's undisputed masterpiece, The Garden of Earthly Delights, is still linked to Gothic imagery but, at the same time, already embraces the extraordinary innovations of the sixteenth century, including the geographical discoveries in the Americas, from the Caribbean archipelago to Brazil, and in southern Africa.
