Overview
Graphic Novel Series, published by SendPoints, is a collection of original inspirations by cartoonists and illustrators from all over the world with diverse cultural backgrounds. Following on from Basic Art, this series creates a distinct artistic expression and reading experience of the graphic novel with strong visual impact and a variety of styles. It re-explains the definition of "art collection" through "image," presenting a collection that is more artistic than comic and more vivid than the novel. Dutch painter Hieronymus Bosch lived in the late fifteenth century. He is among the most eminent practitioners of Early Netherlandish painting. His art is mostly comprised of bizarre and grotesque interpretations of religious notions and narratives, as well as morbid and nightmarish images of hell. This book combines ground-breaking comic language and reading experience to acquaint readers to Bosch's life views and artistic pursuits.
