Inhaltsangabe
Featuring around thirty defining works, this compact volume reveals why Jan van Eyck's extraordinary realism, exquisite detail, and hidden symbolism continue to captivate viewers more than six centuries later.

Working in fifteenth-century Bruges, Jan van Eyck elevated oil painting to an unprecedented level of naturalism, technical refinement, and symbolic complexity. This engaging survey opens with an introduction to his life, artistic innovations, and lasting influence before presenting thirty-five landmark works, beautifully reproduced and paired with engaging commentary. Readers discover how Van Eyck combined brilliant color, subtle effects of light, and precise observation to create astonishing illusions of reality. Every shimmering jewel, embroidered robe, polished metal surface, and lifelike expression reflects his unrivaled command of texture and color, while objects and gestures reveal religious meaning and personal symbolism. This book is an ideal companion for newcomers, museumgoers, and longtime admirers alike.

Magic

€26,00
From ancient rituals and supernatural visions to sorcerers, mythical creatures, and Surrealist dreamscapes, this remarkable collection brings together more than fifty extraordinary works inspired by magic and the supernatural across thousands of years of art history.

This visually stunning volume traces the history of magic in art through an astonishing progression of paintings, sculptures, prints, and decorative arts, from prehistoric cave paintings and ancient Egyptian carvings to Japanese ghost scrolls, Renaissance masterpieces, Surrealism, and contemporary art. Canonical masterpieces by Botticelli, Bosch, Dürer, Caravaggio, Rembrandt, Goya, Klee, Magritte, Chagall, Warhol, Louise Bourgeois, and Kiki Smith appear alongside Maya ritual imagery, Vodou ceremonies, and other unexpected discoveries that forge surprising connections across cultures and centuries. Witches’ sabbaths, enchanted forests, fortune tellers, fairy queens, magical transformations, and uncanny visions unfold across spectacular reproductions. Brief essays accompany each image, illuminating the folklore, symbolism, religious traditions, and cultural beliefs behind its creation while showing how artists across cultures and centuries have drawn on the supernatural as a source of mystery, wonder, fear, and inspiration.
