Book Synopsis DURERS ANIMALS by : Colin T. Eisler
Book excerpt: In a guided tour through the works of Durer (1471-1528), the greatest Renaissance artist of northern Europe, Eisler reveals the mystic, religious, and social meanings behind Durer's bestiary, accompanied by some 600 illustrations (including 36 color plates) taken from drawings, illuminated manuscripts, painting, etchings, engravings, woodcuts, and pageants Durer created for the Holy Roman Emperor Maximilian. A lovely production. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
