Книга Откровения: с иллюстрациями Альбрехта Дюрера из "Апокалипсиса"

"And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea."A Collector’s Edition, perfect for lovers of sacred art, biblical scholarship, and historical illustration.This beautiful volume unites the poetry and power of The Book of Revelation with the visionary genius of Albrecht Dürer’s Apocalypse—presented here in rare full-colour facsimiles.Originally published in 1498, Dürer’s Apocalypse was the first book ever illustrated and published by an artist. From the thunderous charge of the Four Horsemen to the celestial triumph of the Lamb, Dürer’s scenes—originally carved into pear wood—capture the urgency and awe of St. John’s vision with unparalleled intensity. This was a time when Europe trembled in the belief that the world would end in 1500, and Dürer’s fifteen masterful engravings, carved with astonishing precision and theological depth, shaped people’s view of the day of judgment for centuries. This edition offers:- Full-colour facsimiles of Dürer’s complete Apocalypse series, hand-coloured during Dürer’s lifetime- Parallel biblical text (King James version) in large, easy-to-read format- An introduction on Dürer’s technique and symbolism- Printed on high-quality 90 gsm paper www.orrydian.co.ukbooks@.orrydian.co.uk
