Beschrijving binnenkant stofomslag:
Taken from the full range of European prints of the mid-fifteenth to late nineteenth centuries, this is a collection of astonishing images, some frightening, some ethereally beautiful, all strange and unexpected. The nightmare visions of Bosch, Breughel, Fuseli and Doré ; the elaborate allegories of Dürer ; the satirical grotesqueries of Hogarth ; the powerful BibHcal evocations of Blake; the romantic literary paintings of Delacroix and Moreau - all these, and the engravings of many less well known artists reproduced here. reveal that the work of the great Surrealists was no unexpected. modem phenomenon. Rather, the exploration of the resources of the subconscious mind is part of a tradition whose roots lie deep in the art of the past. and whose most significant expression is to be found in graphic art.
