The creation of the 50 floral patterns in this book have been
inspired by nature and derived from floral motifs, plinths, and
mandalas. The detailed interlocking repeating patterns range from
moderate to very intricate, and are best suited for intermediate to
advanced level colorists. Most are quite challenging in the degree
of detail and intricacy, and will provide hours of rewarding
coloring enjoyment and pleasure. The designs combine the beauty of
nature with the hypnotic appeal of mandalas and tile patterns.
These inspiring works of art are designed to stimulate the
imaginations of colorists. The detailed line images offer a wealth
of variety and the coloring possibilities are endless. We hope you
enjoy them as much as we are thrilled to present them to you.

Philip Hofer, who founded the Department of Printing and Graphic
Arts in the Houghton Library, was a curator and collector of great
zeal and singular taste. In this exhibition catalogue his
successor, Eleanor Garvey, explores the rich legacy Hofer
bequeathed to Harvard: extraordinary manuscripts, writing manuals,
illustrated books, and examples of fine and unusual printing. The
objects of Hofer's fancy constitute a teaching collection and a
scholarly resource of the highest kind. They also justify the
reputation he earned over a long and unique career as the "Prince
of the Eye."

Winner of the 2019 SECAC Award for Excellence in Scholarly Research
and Publication In The Riddle of Jael, Peter Scott Brown offers the
first history of the Biblical heroine Jael in medieval and
Renaissance art. Jael, who betrayed and killed the tyrant Sisera in
the Book of Judges by hammering a tent peg through his brain as he
slept under her care, was a blessed murderess and an especially
fertile moral paradox in the art of the early modern period. Jael's
representations offer insights into key religious, intellectual,
and social developments in late medieval and early modern society.
They reflect the influence on art of exegesis, the Reformation and
Counter-Reformation, humanism and moral philosophy, misogyny and
the battle of the sexes, the emergence of syphilis, and the
Renaissance ideal of the artist.
