Le Livre des Miracles est une des découvertes récentes les plus spectaculaires dans le domaine des arts de la Renaissance: ressurgi il y a quelques années à peine, il fait désormais partie d une collection particulière américaine. Le manuscrit retrouvé, presque complet, a été créé dans la cité impériale libre souabe d Augsbourg aux alentours de 1550; il se compose de 169 pages aux illustrations grand format, gouaches ou aquarelles, représentant des constellations et des phénomènes célestes souvent inquiétants, des incendies, inondations et autres catastrophes extraordinaires. Il traite aussi bien de la création du monde et d incidents tirés de l Ancien Testament, de traditions anciennes et de chroniques médiévales, que d événements contemporains de l auteur du livre. À travers les illustrations du visionnaire Livre de la révélation, il aborde même la fin du monde.
Les illustrations étonnamment modernes, parfois proches d hallucinations, tout comme les descriptions rapides du Livre des Miracles permettent d appréhender de manière passionnante les préoccupations et angoisses du XVIe siècle, la pensée apocalyptique et l eschatologie. Le volume fac-simile proposé reproduit pour la première fois le Livre des Miracles dans son intégralité, rendant enfin accessible aux érudits comme aux amateurs d art une des uvres les plus importantes de la Renaissance allemande. Une introduction replace ce codex dans son contexte historique et culturel, et une description exhaustive du manuscrit et de ses miniatures, ainsi qu une transcription complète du texte, servent d appendice à ce fac-simile.

REVUE The original images themselves are beautiful, strange, enigmatic, evocative, brilliant. Everything that one might expect. My disappointment lies in the quality of the reproductions: One would think that, in this day and age of digital media, where one can so easily make and print high resolution scans or digital photos, that there is no reason for anything less than the most sharp and detailed reproductions, with true, full, rich colors and a palatable sense of depth and tone. Especially at this price. But, unfortunately, the images as reproduced here in this book are somewhat hazy and blurry. They are not horrific, just nowhere near as good as they could or should be. And that is a huge disappointment.
The question is, why? Obviously, a lot of effort was made to produce a beautiful book package, with the clamshell box, the Florentine paper endpapers, the paperback catalogue included, etc. The original 16th century handbook was a rare and important find, and it has been reproduced here as the special art publishing event that it deserves to be - in all but one very important aspect: The actual reproduction of the images. It kind of boggles the mind that Taschen would go to all this trouble, and then bungle the "main event". We should be able to look at these images and feel as though we are looking at the originals, but that is hardly the case. Instead I feel as though I am looking at a color Xerox copy circa 1983. (And don't be fooled by the images online, which, for the most part, look amazingly sharp and rich and quite promising. But those images have been shrunk way down, and when one sees the full size images in the book . . .well, it is just rather sad).
The beguiling beauty of the images makes the book worthwhile; I won't be sending it back. But I think that had I seen the quality of the reproductions in hand (instead of buying it "blindly" on Amazon), I would have had serious doubts about actually spending the $100, and probably wouldn't have. Quite frankly, the reproductions in the paperback catalogue are about as good as the reproductions in the hardcover, which is inexcusable. What a let down, and what a missed opportunity.
