" ... The WunderCabinet is Cohen and Hodgson's interpretation of ... 16th-to-18th century cabinets of curiosities. It is a glimpse into the authors' own collections through essays, images and objects. ... In the spirit and mode of the authors' ongoing series of books exploring color ..., the many & diverse images ... take a variety of forms, whether engraved, hand drawn, hand coloured, layered or collaged. Objects included with the book follow this tradition and complement the topics covered in the book." -- publisher's website.
