Philipp Sadeler’s Visions of Hell Coloured by Adam McLean
$125.00
Philipp Sadeler’s Visions of Hell Coloured by Adam McLean, published in 2011.SIGNED by Adam Mclean on half title. A rather delightful series of emblems illustrating an early 17th century book about the torments of Hell. Sadeler rescues the bleakness of the text with his engaging scenes of demons and humans. Sadly, today, this is an almost unknown work by an obscure and unrecognised engraver. Hardcover with original dust jacket, near fine.
