{"product_id":"9781606060711","title":"Illuminating the End of Time: The Getty Apocalypse Manuscript","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe visionary nature of the Apocalypse—the biblical book of Revelation—along with its detailed descriptions of the end of the world have long made it ideal for illustration. Illuminated texts of the Apocalypse were particularly popular in thirteenth-century England, and the copy in the collections of the J. Paul Getty Museum, with its lively narrative miniatures, stands as a testament to the artistic heights achieved during that period. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this richly illustrated book, all eighty-two of the manuscript’s images are reproduced in color for the first time. They are accompanied by a full commentary. A general introduction to the history of thirteenth-century English illustrated Apocalypse manuscripts is followed by a succinct study of the artistic context of the Getty’s manuscript, as well as a consideration of its style and date. The rest of the commentary is devoted to a stylistic and iconographic analysis of the manuscript’s images; there is also a complete translation of the text.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Getty Publications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47041723334896,"sku":"9781606060711","price":75.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781606060711_p0.jpg?v=1763834935","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781606060711","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
