Each image is accompanied by a commentary that provides a historical context for the image and on the natural and symbolic history of the beast depicted. The panoply of wonderful beasts includes Durer's rhinoceros, Manet's cats on their Parisian rooftops, a carp by Hiroshige and Matisse's elegant swan, and the artwork includes etchings, lithographs, engravings and woodcuts from the 16th century to the present. In his preface to the volume, the cultural historian Michel Pastoureau considers the symbolic power of animals in the human imagination, providing us with 'a huge repertoire of signs and dreams'." -- provided by publisher. 610 20 $a Bibliotheque nationale de France. $b Departement des estampes et de la photographie $v Catalogs. 610 27 $a Bibliotheque nationale de France. $b Departement des estampes et de la photographie. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00731126 650 0 $a Animals in art $v Catalogs. 650 0 $a Prints, French $v Catalogs. 650 0 $a Prints, European $v Catalogs. 650 0 $a Prints, American $v Catalogs. 650 0 $a Prints $z Paris $z Paris $v Catalogs. 650 7 $a ART $x General. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a ART $x Plants & Animals. $x Plants & Animals. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a ART $x General. $x General. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Animals in art. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00809573 650 7 $a Prints. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01076812 650 7 $a Prints, American. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01076848 650 7 $a Prints, European. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01076896 650 7 $a Prints, French. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01076904 651 7 $a France $z Paris. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01205283 655 7 $a Catalogs. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423692 700 1 $a Sueur-Hermel, Valerie, $e editor. 700 1 $a Mathis, Remi, $d 1982- $e editor. 700 1 $a Pastoureau, Michel, $d 1947- $e writer of preface. 700 1 $a DoÂrr, Augusta, $e translator. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231019024821.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=0E9B9CAAF5D511E7B33F7C0497128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
