In the midst of the realist-leaning artistic climate of the Late Gothic and Early Renaissance, Netherlandish painter Hieronymus Bosch c. Bosch's paintings are populated with grotesque scenes of fantastical creatures succumbing to all manner of human desire, fantasy, and angst. One of his greatest inventions was to take the figural and scenic representations known as drolleries, which use the monstrous and the grotesque to illustrate sin and evil, and to transfer them from the marginalia of illuminated manuscripts into large-format panel paintings. Alongside traditional hybrids of man and beast, such as centaurs, and mythological creatures such as unicorns, devils, dragons, and griffins, we also encounter countless mixed creatures freely invented by the artist.

Many subsidiary scenes illustrate proverbs and figures of speech in common use in Bosch's day. In his Temptation of St Anthony triptych, for example, the artist shows a messenger devil wearing ice skates, evoking the popular expression that the world was "skating on ice"?

Meaning it had gone astray. In his pictorial translation of proverbs, in particular, Bosch was very much an innovator. Whose real name was Jheronimus van Aken? Was widely copied and imitated: the number of surviving works by Bosch's followers exceeds the master's own production by more than tenfold. Today only 20 paintings and eight drawings are confidently assigned to Bosch's oeuvre.

He continues to be seen as a visionary, a portrayer of dreams and nightmares, and the painter par excellence of hell and its demons. Featuring brand new photography of recently restored paintings, this exhaustive book, published in view of the upcoming 500th anniversary of Bosch's death, covers the artist's complete works.

Discover Bosch's pictorial inventions in splendid reproductions with copious details and a huge fold-out spread, over 110 cm 43 in. Long, of The Garden of Earthly Delights. Art historian and acknowledged Bosch expert Stefan Fischer examines just what it was about Bosch and his painting that proved so immensely influential. This may be the first time for many of us to actually see Bosch.

Bosch's paintings require close-up textual study. With these pages, there's no guard to shoo you back or announce closing time.. Instead of pushing to the front of a close-packed crowd and briefly peering, you can study the mind-bending visions of this medieval master at your leisure.

This big impressive book showcases in vivid colors the drolleries he devised, which were traditionally shown only at the margins of the medieval manuscripts. An earthly delight not to be missed.

TASCHEN has produced an epic volume that exhaustively details Bosch's surviving works. Surely the most lavishly produced monograph ever published on the artist. Stefan Fischer studied art history, history, and classical archaeology in Münster, Amsterdam, and Bonn. In 2009 he completed his doctoral thesis Hieronymus Bosch: Malerei als Vision, Lehrbild und Kunstwerk. His specialist fields are Netherlandish painting of the 15th to the 17th centuries and museology. If you have any questions, please ask us - we welcome questions and will happily respond a.
