Fantastic Beasts of the Nineteenth Century: Dragons, Birds, and Incredible Sea Creatures (Dover Fine Art, History of Art)

high-quality reproductions of little-known art

I’m a tattoo artist and I’m always looking for great pictorial/reference books.The images in this book are very clear and nicely sized. The paper is great quality so I see this book having a long and fulfilling life.I enjoy the feather images the most as I find they will be very helpful to designing more interesting feather tattoos.I have to say that I was hoping for more dragons and “beasts” but this book has more birds than anything else. Which is only slightly disappointing...Overall I think this book is very well done and inspiring for my needs. I’m happy to add it to my collection.

I just found out about Anton Seder recently, could hardly believe I had missed an artist of such style, and after having read some negative reviews of another book on his work, I took a chance on this one and was not disappointed.The usual Dover quality, perhaps even better than usual. True to the name, it's limited to a collection of his creature drawings. But the reproductions are the reason to buy it. Good, clear, well-tended images.

Low quality images. Fuzzy.

The image is pixelated, and the color is wrong. It is terrible reprint and thet is a shame Because Anton Seder artwork is beautiful. I return it.
