Commissioned at the end of the 18th century by famed art collector and author Thomas Hope, these 110 deceptively simple illustrations are the great achievement of John Flaxman, English sculptor, draughtsman, and contemporary of William Blake. Awash in pathos and recalling a classically Greek style, they have inspired such artists as Goya and Ingres. Reprint of the Longman, Hurst, Rees, and Orme, London, 1807 edition.
Los Caprichos by Francisco Goya Considered Goya's most brilliant work, this collection combines corrosive satire and exquisite technique to depict 18th-century Spain as a nation of grotesque monsters sprung up in the absence of reason. 80 plates.
Christian Art and Imagery by Alan Weller From the greatest works of Eastern and Western art comes this breathtaking collection. Its 200 color and 13 black-and-white illustrations include paintings by Raphael and Van Eyck, plus mosaic and stained glass imagery.
Engravings by Hogarth by William Hogarth Rake's Progress, Harlot's Progress, Illustrations for Hudibras, Before and After, Beer Street, and Gin Lane, 96 more. Commentary by Sean Shesgreen.
