First Edition
Hardcover. First edition. 486p, over 200 ills. + 16 color plates. Lacks the dust jacket. An extraordinary catalogue that examines "the depth and breadth of European interest in the marvelous during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries"--natural, artificial, and supernatural wonders. Essays by specialists on the Wunkerkammer, strange new worlds, remarkable humans and singular beasts, exotic plants, theaters, festivals, gardens, trompe-l'oeil painting, and Christian marvels. Illustrated with paintings, maps, prints, books, objects, etc. Large and very heavy; shipping/handling will be extra. Please keep this in mind when ordering. Very good (fore-edges very slightly foxed).
