BESTIARIA

Bestiaria : animaux fantastiques, monstrueux et allégoriques

Nouveauté

Auteur(s) : Domitilla Dardi

The animal world has always inspired fantastical images. The hybridisation of humans and animals is as old as art and religion: just think of Egyptian or Hindu deities, or the masterpieces of visionary painters such as Hieronymus Bosch.

Continuing the exploration of the representation of nature in a journey between art and design that began with Herbaria, this richly illustrated book is devoted to the representation of the animal world from antiquity to the present day. The creatures presented are not animals as nature creates them, but imaginary beings born of the human mind, making the unusual plausible. The result is a graphic compendium of fantastic zoology that speaks volumes about human dreams and nightmares.
