«The Issenheim Altar» is Pantxika Béguerie's art guide to the Isenheim Altarpiece, published by La Nuée bleue in paperback (40 pages, in English).
The book studies the Isenheim Altarpiece, now in the Unterlinden Museum in Colmar, and reconstructs the environment in which it was conceived. It surveys the organization of its panels, the religious iconography and the meanings it conveys, and serves as a brief introduction to this Renaissance work.
The 1991 English edition features a translation by Penelope Denu. The altarpiece studied is the work of Matthias Grünewald.
Intended for readers interested in Renaissance art and for those preparing a visit to the Unterlinden Museum.
