Hieronymus Bosch - The Complete Works

Hieronymus Bosch. The Complete Works (45th Edition) presents the entire surviving legacy of one of history’s most enigmatic painters. Though only around twenty paintings and eight drawings can be securely attributed to the Netherlandish master Hieronymus Bosch (c. 1450–1516), their extraordinary imagination has ensured his status as a cult figure for over five centuries.

This richly illustrated volume immerses readers in Bosch’s visionary world — a realm of surreal hybrid creatures, moral allegories, and nightmarish landscapes that continue to influence artists, writers, and designers today. With vivid full-page reproductions and detailed close-ups, art historian Stefan Fischer unravels the painter’s complex symbolism, religious context, and fascination with human folly, offering an essential guide to one of the most haunting and inventive imaginations in Western art.
