A bird-monster devouring sinners, naked bodies in tantric
contortions, a pair of ears brandishing a sharpened blade: with
nightmarish details and fantastical painterly schemes,
Netherlandish visionary Hieronymus Bosch (c. 1450-1516) secured his
place as an art historical magnet. Five hundred years on from his
death, his extraordinary works continue to enthrall scholars,
artists, designers, and musicians. This large-scale TASCHEN
monograph presents the complete Bosch oeuvre, celebrating the
artist's staggering compositional scope and most bizarre and
intricate details through full-page reproductions, abundant
details, and a fold-out spread drawn from The Last Judgement. With
guidance from art historian and Bosch expert Stefan Fischer, we
explore the many compelling elements that populate each scene, from
hybrid creatures of man and beast, to painterly assaults on the
body, and a pictorial use of proverbs and idioms. Particular
attention is given to Bosch's most famous work, the mesmerizing,
terrifying triptych The Garden of Earthly Delights.
