From the Book Jacket

The complex and extravagant imagery of Hieronymous Bosch (1450-1516) has earned him renown as one of the world's most fascinating artists. He made the struggle of human sin and fear of judgment tangible in a way that has never been surpassed. Bosch's master role is realized here in this complete and remarkable collection, and through Dr. Erik Larsen's unrelenting study of the artist, his work, and the continuing controversy surrounding the interpretations and dates of his paintings. Bosch Premiers as one of the first of four titles in the Master artists Library series, the first collection to reproduce in dazzling color every painting by a featured artist. Each volume provides unsurpassed dimension through in depth analysis of the paintings and extensive artist biographies, as written by the world's leading art historians. The first four books-Vermeer, Bosch, Masaccio, and Dûrer-are only the beginning of a complete and magnificent library of the world's master artists.

Worth the Price

Erik Larsen's book on Bosch looks good on a coffee table and reads even better. Nicely bound and a terrific summer read.
