Book Synopsis

Welcome to the imaginary world of a most unusual painter, Guiseppe Arcimboldo, who created highly original still life portraits that are, in fact, full of life! Using your ‘magic’ torch, explore the strange and surprising details of his Renaissance paintings: a head made of flowers and a body made of leaves, a mushroom mouth and a courgette nose, peach cheeks and cherry lips. Each spread more spectacular than the last!
