Pictura is a stunning range of black-and-white art to collect and colour, for ages 9 to 90.
In Draconis, John Howe (conceptual artist for the Lord of the Rings films) shows that there are dragons everywhere: in woods, in castles, in the clouds, in architecture, sitting on piles of treasure and, lastly, in books. After colouring-in the front, users are invited to copy John’s work using a grid exercise on the back.

The Wanderings of Odysseus

The long siege of Troy is over, and the city is in ashes. Heroic King Odysseus can finally return to Ithaca, but the voyage home holds terrors far greater than any he faced during the Trojan War. Storms have thrust Odysseus's ship into unknown waters. Here he must confront not only the blunders of his crew, but far stranger perils: the one-eyed, flesh-eating Cyclops; Circe, the enchantress with the power to turn men into swine; the unnerving trip through the Land of the Dead. And when he finally reaches home, he finds his palace overrun by loutish suitors fighting to win the affections of his adored wife Penelope. Odysseus has one last thrilling battle to fight before he can reclaim his wife and his kingdom. Rosemary Sutcliff's vivid transformation brings Homer's Odyssey to life for a new generation. While simplified, the story is never "dumbed down," making it an excellent introduction to Greek mythology for readers of all ages.

Beginning with the landscape of a ruin, the artist takes the reader back in time to the original castle at the height of its rich and busy life. Here, a traveler tells tales- of other castles he has known, of castles in myth and legend, taking his audience from one ancient Great Hall to another in stories woven in the grand tradition- the Norse Sagas, Celtic myths, the tales of the Age of Chivalry- and always at the heart of each epic is the castle- the richly fascinating symbol that has held meaning for generations down through the centuries. The art of Alan Lee is illuminated by the prose of David Day in vividly evocative writing intricately woven into the many drawings and color spreads.

Homer's epic poem, The Iliad, is one of the greatest adventure stories of all time. Rich with arresting imagery and memorable characters, its powerful metaphors still permeate modern culture. This brilliant retelling offers young readers an exciting introduction to the heroes of ancient Greece while providing the complete story of the battle of Troy. The legendary beauty, Helen, is abducted, leading to a decade-long conflict in which even the gods and goddesses take sides and intervene. This is the Trojan War, where the most valiant heroes of the ancient world are pitted against one another. Here Hector, Ajax, Achilles, and Odysseus meet their most formidable challenges and in some cases, their tragic ends. Rosemary Sutcliff makes such extraordinary stories as those of the Trojan horse, of Aphrodite and the golden apple, and of the fearsome warrior women, the Amazons, accessible to contemporary young people. Superb illustrations enhance the story's dramatic appeal.

《红楼梦》里繁盛的花草世界,不仅是场景的点缀,黛玉的潇湘馆、宝钗的蘅芜院,衬托了人物的性情;海棠诗社的由来,因海棠花而起;芒种节祭花神,黛玉有《葬花神》;中秋题咏菊花诗,一共吟咏菊花韵事十二种;香菱与芳官等人斗草,一连数出观音柳、罗汉松、君子竹、美人蕉等花草名……这些植物的名称与特性,透过文字的想象,仅能领略一二,有了此书,让读者一边欣赏文学,一边吸收植物学知识,岂不妙哉!
《红楼梦》作为古今第一奇书,已成为几乎每个中文读者的必读之书。然此素易读难解,于是研究《红楼梦》也成为古今学者前仆后继的使命。本书作者结合植物学专业人员与古典文学迷两种身份,尝试以多识草木之名来作为理解《红楼梦》的捷径。本书收录了所有在红楼梦中出现过的植物共242种,从每回故事大纲说起,言简意赅剖析每种植物在故事中的运用技巧。800多帧精彩摄影具体体现丰富多变、赏心悦目的红楼世界。借由本书,读者可了解曹雪芹如何运用植物来写景抒情、刻划人物,只有认识书中的植物特性,才能一一体会曹雪芹的匠心,了解红楼梦奥妙的隐喻与深远的寓意。本书系“文学珍藏”系列继《诗经植物图鉴》、《楚辞植物图鉴》和《唐诗植物图鉴》又推出的一本创意新书。

☆ 世界上最伟大的艺术天才达·芬奇手稿正版引进,近300幅手稿最大限度完美复原,纽约大都会艺术博物馆专家精心汇编

导言节选
达·芬奇去世近500 年后的今天,这位艺术家、发明家及文艺复兴的杰出代表依然令我们眷恋痴迷。除了十余幅谜一样美丽的画作,达·芬奇还留下了大量的速写、笔记和文章,不仅影响了那个时代的伟大艺术家,也使得现代读者由衷地为之赞叹。达·芬奇的手稿大约有4000 份,被后人笼统地称为“达·芬奇笔记”,这些手稿被分门别类、汇编成几个不同的集合。笔记涵盖的内容广泛,从解剖学研究到颜料的研磨和调色技巧,让我们得以自由广泛地感知这位艺术大师极为丰富的想象力。
达·芬奇笔记中撰写的大量文字对现代读者是一个挑战,不仅仅因为他那著名的“镜像”写作方式,还因为这些笔记非常散乱,除《莱斯特手稿》(Codex Leicester )、《马德里手稿》(Codex Madrid )等少数特例之外,其他手稿都是内容混杂,有时甚至在同一页之内写有不同的内容。手稿的语言复杂难懂,翻译资料又相对匮乏,感兴趣的非专业读者若想深入探索达·芬奇的天赋,必然遭遇重重困难。
本书尝试克服上述难题。除了每一部分的编者导言之外,其余内容全部为达·芬奇本人的绘画和文字。这些内容经过精心编排,并被组织成为相应的章节。虽然这种分类方法稍稍有悖于达·芬奇艺术创作的高度统一性,但是它能为当代读者提供一种较为舒适的阅读结构。
我们希望,本书能够把列奥纳多·达·芬奇的天才以崭新的形式呈现给读者。

这是1950年的纽约:
爵士乐、烟草和浮华的世界
这是智勇双全的私家侦探:
他爱猫,他有九条命;
他不爱喝牛奶,他烟不离手;
他没有抑郁症,他有幽默感:
……谁说猫科动物只会卖萌?
《黑猫侦探》(Blacksad)凭借其冷硬派侦探小说风格的叙事、黑色电影风格的旁白及场景氛围、手工上色的水彩画风格、以动物喻人堪比《动物农庄》的犀利,被誉为新生代欧漫中的最经典之作。
身为一位忧郁中不乏幽默、风衣不离身的私家侦探主角,黑猫墨萨德游走于20世纪50年代的美国都市。在他眼前,是迷宫般的城市、血腥的案件、狡诈的对手和不可破解的疑团;而他的身后,是高层腐败、种族歧视、麦卡锡主义的时代幽灵……随着案情的峰回路转,惊人的真相也逐渐浮出水面,拷问着所有人的灵魂。
