The Book of Revelations is depicted in 20 centuries of artwork from early manuscripts to modern art. The paintings and images of Blake, El Greco, Cranech, Redon, Durer, a Manga Bible, filmmakers, and many others are reprinted in gorgeous color and clarity. Armageddon, a Pale Horse Rider, the Seven Seals, the Four Horsemen, New Jerusalem are all symbols and concepts that have inspired artists, writers, and philosophers; they saturate Western Civilization and enrich our lives. The authors present sociocultural and historical contexts for the various artistic interpretations. Well-researched and accessible to all. Well done!
