Three dimensional sculpture of the "Egg Monster", one
of numerous unusual characters that appear in "The Last Judgment", painted
by early Renaissance artist Hieronymus Bosch (1450-1516). One of three
large triptychs painted by Bosch during his lifetime, "The Last
Judgment" follows the customary triptych tradition, meant to be viewed from
left to right. The "Egg Monster" is found in the center panel (see
photo, below).
Considered to be a forerunner of surrealism and
inspiring artists across the centuries, from Brueghel to Dali, Bosch
continues to fascinate historians and art lovers alike. Studio artists
in Bosch's Netherlands birthplace, s'Hertogenbosch, hand-paint molded resin
forms to produce incredibly detailed three dimensional renderings of the
fantastical figures found in "The Last Judgment".
"Egg Monster" appears in the center panel, an
unfortunate bystander of the busy work of processing sinners for Judgment
Day.
Figures that have long been a source of fascination
have been lifted from the painted surface and transformed into 3D objects
for our close inspection. Perfect for placement on a desk or shelf,
this small sculpture will make an ideal gift for anyone interested in
Renaissance Art or Modern Surrealism.
