On all 3 books the upper corners on front cover are bent (see photos) - on volume II, the first few pages have the upper corner creased - other than this slight damage to the case and books, they are in good condition - very clean - no writing or other damage. In this meticulous two-volume reprint, TASCHEN presents both the Old and New Testaments of Luther’s landmark publication. Based on a precious copy of the original and printed in color, it reveals the multilayered splendor of this bible, showcasing the meticulous script, elaborate initials, and exquisite color woodcuts from the workshop of Lucas Cranach.Stephan Füssel, director of the Institute for Book Sciences at the Johannes Gutenberg University in Mainz, adds his expertise to the publication with detailed descriptions of the illustrations, as well as an introduction exploring Luther’s life and the seismic significance of his bible.
