Scripture for the Eyes catalogue now available
The catalogue for the upcoming exhibition of "Scripture for the Eyes: Biblical Illustrations in Netherlandish Prints of the Sixteenth Century" is now available in both softcover ($49) and hardcover ($65) editions from the Museum Bookshop. This is the first major scholarly publication to explore the relationship between northern European religious prints and confessional conflicts in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. In particular, this volume studies the central role played by printed illustrations of subjects from both the Old and New Testaments in a time of great change and transformation throughout Europe. To order a copy of the catalogue, contact the Museum Bookshop at 404-727-0509, or print out an order form for mail order.
