Reviews
Dover hard copy edition: 41 very small woodcuts by Holbein. When will I learn? I expected to see full size artwork - as on the cover - throughout the book. Instead, 2x3" illos more like big postage stamps. And, of course, the text is in medieval French so you know I bought this solely for the artwork. Holbein's a master but break out your magnifying glass for this one. Bummer. You're much better off downloading a copy from archive.org
