The works in this book are filled with magic and beauty. Mostly colorful stylized landscapes that, although not photo-realistic, nevertheless express a mystical feeling about nature . I wish I could see the originals.

Eyvind Earle's work, like that of the other true masters before him, transcends generations and particular tastes. You will marvel at these breathtaking images and even be deeply moved. Do not miss an opportunity to discover this amazing man. The world has lost a brilliant talent, but his works will remain forever.

The late Eyvind Earle was an American artist whose craftsmanship and skill produced museum quality artworks. He was also a gifted poet and writer. Long out of print and now presented in a new third edition, "The Complete Graphics of Eyvind Earle" is the first of a two volume set showcasing the man, his work, and his career. This 360-page compendium superbly presents 160 full color images of his artwork and is enhanced with the inclusion of an autobiography, as well as samples and examples of his writings and poems. Of special note is the chronology provided of his remarkable careers.
