About This Item
Berkeley: University of California Press, 1988. Hardcover. VG-/VG- some light fading to boards, pencil notations in text, light wear to corners and edges of dust jacket, minor fading to spine.. Green cloth boards. Glossy dust jacket with color illustration and yellow and white lettering. xv, 109 pp. BW and color illustrations. Matthias Grünwald's world-famous Isenheim Altarpiece ranks among the most powerful expressionistic works of the Northern Renaissance. Characterized by great emotional force, exquisite handling of color and brilliantly interwoven subtleties of Christian iconography, the multi-paneled altarpiece has remained the object of intense scholarly interest and the main attraction of the Musée d'Unterlinden in Colmar, France. -Front Flap.
