In the Middle Ages they were mainly associated with death and the Devil; but in the 16th and 17th centuries, with the emergence of science, people began to appreciate their beauty, and such creatures appeared in works of art, became the subject of scholarly treatises and were popular collectors' items. Artists such as Albrecht D?er, Wenzel Jamnitzer, Jan van Kessel and Maria Sibylla Merian created beautiful depictions of these creatures.\u003cbr\u003eToday, artists are still inspired by \"crawly creatures\" and continue to depict new ways of dealing with insects and the natural world. This richly illustrated publication, designed by Irma Boom, celebrates the wonders of small creatures and the fascinating relationship between art and science across the centuries.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Hans Mulder\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9462087563\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789462087569\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Nai010 Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/17\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 200\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.15lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 12.60h x 9.60w x 0.90d","brand":"Hans Mulder","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44080772120831,"sku":"9789462087569","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_30353eea-f437-4a0d-9e7f-b8356742033a.jpg?v=1685488726","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/crawly-creatures-hans-mulder-9789462087569","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
