More Arent van Bolten
There is a great post on the art of Arent van Bolten over at the always amazing art blog Giornale Nuovo. Mr H saw my previous post on the curious sculptures and drawings of grotesque beasts and has since acquired a book with additional works by Bolten. He has scanned in much larger examples of Bolten's beasts then were previously available online, enjoy.
