...this book will certainly fill a gap in the literature and be of use to students of art history. -Sheila McTighe, Renaissance Quarterly Through a general presentation of Bosse's /uvre, Carl Goldstein has sought to convey the vitality and the artistic, intellectual and cultural vigor of engraved art illustration in the early seventeenth century. He has sought range rather than depth, and description through a taxonomy of all the themes and genres in which Bosse worked. No subject would have served his purpose better than Bosse's life and work. -- Orest Ranum, emeritus professor of history, The Johns Hopkins University
