Item description from seller

This fascinating guide helps, by looking at and decoding the key figures, themes, events, and symbols that form the subject matter of major Western paintings. Strikingly illustrated with 75 masterpieces, it s the ideal companion for art lovers, gallery goers, and students. This covers five major areas: Classical Myth and Legend; The Bible and the Life of Christ; Saints and their Miracles; History, Literature, and the Arts; and Symbols and Allegories. Each chapter includes a portfolio of images, followed by a thematic directory of figures and symbols. /// This is a 1st edition hardback with its dustjacket in near to fine condition-the top edge of the dustjacket stained. (256 pages). This is a heavy book over 1.8kg, so there will be an extra postage charge.
