内容简介 One of the most famous members of a family of German artists active in the 17th and 18th centuries, Matthaeus Merian (the Elder) lived from 1593 to 1650. He was an engraver and publisher who produced a large number of prints, particularly of historical interest. One of his greatest works is this collection of masterfully engraved scenes including, from the Old Testament, Adam and Eve Driven Out of the Garden of Eden, The Flood, The Sacrifice of Isaac, David Slaying Goliath, The Fall of Jericho, The Tower of Babel, Daniel in the Lion's Den, and a host of others. Also depicted here are familiar scenes from the New Testament: The Annunciation, Christ in the Manger, The Good Samaritan, The Temptation of Christ in the Desert, The Raising of Lazarus, The Last Supper, The Crucifixion, and many more. Rich in detail, atmosphere, grandeur, and power, these magnificent engravings add a wonderful pictorial dimension to the age-old scenes and stories of the Bible. A one-line title accompanies each illustration, along with a citation of book, chapter, and verse. Unabridged republication of all 230 plates from Icones Biblicae.
