Reproduces all the illustrations, and many of the full spreads, from the Aldine press edition of Francesco Colonna's ""Hypnerotomachia Poliphili."" It is certain to appeal to the historian, bibliophile, art historian, designer for its psychologically rich and emblematic illustrations. Bibliography.
