40th Edition- Hieronymus Bosch. The Complete Works. 40th Ed.

Delicious demons, nightmare creatures, and atrocious angels; no painter has come close to the fantastical schemes of Hieronymus Bosch. Delve deep into the artist’s complete works, through fresh photographs of recently restored paintings such as The Last Judgement and The Garden of Earthly Delights.



Only 20 paintings and eight drawings are confidently assigned to Netherlandish painter Hieronymus Bosch (c. 1450–1516) but in their fantastical visions they have secured his place as one of the most cult artists in history. 500 years on from his death, his works continue to inspire scholars, artists, designers, and musicians, death metal band names and designer dresses. This edition offers the complete and haunting Bosch world in one compact format. Through full spreads and carefully curated details, we explore the full reach and compelling inventions of the artist’s genius as well as disturbing imagination. We encounter his hybrid creatures, his nightmarish scenarios, his religious and moral framework, and his pictorial versions of contemporary proverbs and idioms. Along the way, art historian and Bosch expert Stefan Fischer reveals the most important themes and influences in these cryptic, mesmerizing masterpieces.
