Item Number: 137794 Title: HIERONYMUS BOSCH : Visions of Genius Author: Ilsink, Matthijs ; Jos Koldeweij Price: Not Available ISBN: 9780300220131 Description: Antwerp: Mercatorfonds, 2016. 27cm., pbk., 192pp., 140 color illus. Exhibition held at Noordbrabants Museum, ’s-Hertogenbosch. English text. Summary: Hieronymus Bosch (1450–1516) lived and worked in 's-Hertogenbosch, the Netherlands, where he created enigmatic paintings and drawings full of bizarre creatures, phantasmagoric monsters, and terrifying nightmares. He also depicted detailed landscapes and found inspiration in fundamental moral concepts: seduction, sin, and judgment. This beautiful book accompanies the largest exhibition ever held on Bosch's work, and will feature important new research on his 25 known paintings and 20 drawings. The book, divided into six sections, covers the entirety of the artist's career. It discusses in detail Bosch's Pilgrimage of Life, Bosch and the Life of Christ, his role as a draughtsman, his depictions of saints, and The Garden of Earthly Delights, among other topics, and is handsomely illustrated by new photography undertaken by the Bosch Research and Conservation Project Team.
