Written in the tradition of the medieval bestiaries, Robert Fitzgerald's 'Arcanum Bestiarum' re-imagines the spiritual, magical and atavistic powers of the animal world. Written for the modern reader, the 272-page volume examines the occult virtues of fifty animals, including magical correspondences and tutelary powers. The text is graced with fifty-five original woodcut illustrations by celebrated artist Liv Rainey-Smith, prepared especially for this title in close collaboration with the author. Completing the design elements is an original typeface created for the work by calligrapher Gail Coppock.
