About This Item
New York: Avenel Books, 1984. 191pp/illus. Of all the legendary animals of art, folklore, and literature, the unicorn is the one with the greatest hold on our imagination. It seems such a probable, even possible, creature that we can not help but believe that it must really exist. In this book the author takes us on a tour of unicorn folklore, from China, Japan, and India to Europe, from Medieval Times to Modern Times. She examines tapestries, illuminated manuscripts, sculptures, and paintings. With 155 iluustrations both in color and in black & white, this book is a tour of fantasy and folklore, of the real and the imagined. Clean. Cloth. Near Fine/Near Fine. Folio - over 12" - 15" tall.
