The book
“Apollo to Apollo, The hunt for the devine and eternal beauty” presents the extraordinary art form in miniature created by the Masters of Miniature Art in ancient times more than 2300 ago. A crisp presentation of more than three hundred photographs with descriptions tiptoes us back to the beginning of Western culture. We discover hidden art and artists who were silent visionaries interpreting messages in astrology, politics, medicine, science, love and emotions.
Through these miniatures, we experience the beauty and intensity of life in ancient times. Apollo to Apollo is a reminder of the importance of our roots, and to preserve our ‘sacred gifts’ - including imagination and intuition - for our present and future. Apollo to Apollo brings us back from ancient times to the last four centuries and the present day, when many contemporary artists and philosophers were/are inspired by this art form.
“The book can easily be enjoyed for the art alone since almost every piece included is a true masterpiece of the immortal art form that was ancient art. I do however urge the readers to return to its pages frequently and open their heart to the profound messages from the past that are so vital to our collective future.” (extract from the foreword of the book)
