Giclee Prints on archival paper signed

The altarpiece, completed in 2009, is in the form of a large book whose cover has gilt ormolu mounts and semiprecious stones. When opened, the panels might be seen as pages from an illuminated manuscript of the Renaissance. This panel (one of two) shows the gates to the Garden of Eden, which gates look like a book being opened to the story of Adam & Eve. The second panel (not pictured) shows the gates to Hell, which looks like a book being opened to the story of Satan's escape to Earth from his designated prison. In both panels, pages from the poem "Paradise Lost" lie revealed. Vignettes of people who have been important to Terrance Lindall's engagement with Milton's epic over time are in the panels. They include God, Satan, Adam & Eve, John Milton, William Blake, Yuko Nii, Peter Dizozza, Amanda Husberg, Professor Karen Karbiener, Arthur Kirmss, Orin Buck, Terrance Lindall and Dr. Robert Wickenheiser. You will also see in the panels: Heaven, Hell, The Bible,… Read More

Pandemonium: A Visual History of Demonology

by Ed Simon

A compendium celebrating the art of hell and its minions

Pandemonium: The Illustrated History of Demonology presents—for the first time—Satan's family tree, providing a history and analysis of his fellow fallen angels from Asmodeus to Ziminiar. Throughout the book, there are short entries on individual demons, but Pandemonium is more than just a visual encyclopedia. It also focuses on the influence of figures like Beelzebub, Azazel, Lilith, and Moloch on Western religion, literature, and art. Ranging from the earliest scriptural references to demons through the contemporary era, when the devils took on a subtler form, Pandemonium functions as a compendium of Lucifer's subjects, from Dante's The Divine Comedy to John Milton's Paradise Lost, and all the points in between. Containing rarely seen illustrations of very old treatises on demonology, as… Read More

Robert J. Wickenheiser, Phd.:

There have been many illustrators of Paradise lost through the ages. Against this backdrop are the remarkable, haunting, and inspired drawings of Terrance Lindall along with his brilliant synopsis of Milton's epic, first published in a limited edition in 1983 and anew in this format here in order to excite and challenge students of all ages, but especially the young, to find in the great classics such as Paradise Lost and in the illustrations of the great classics (in this instance his own stimulating and remarkable illustrations of Milton's great epic) the reasons why so many have been enriched by Milton's epic down through the centuries and why this remains true today (evidenced in continuous reports of deliveries of Paradise Lost from memory, in shared readings aloud of Paradise Lost,… Read More

In 2011 and 2012 Terrance Lindall completed work on production of "The Paradise Lost Elephant Folio," a 24 k. gold illuminated 13 x 19 inch book containing 14 full-page Giclee print illustrations with hand-painted borders using Museo II paper manufactured by Crane's, which company makes the paper for our currency.
The borders of the elephant folio are complete paintings in themselves. Although the border art focuses principally on elements of design, they also tell stories or make commentary about what is illustrated in the featured central paintings. The borders also are tributes to humanity's great achievements, such as music, dance and architecture, as well as tribute to those individuals and institutions and friends who have had important influences on Lindall's ideas, or who have shown substantial support or affinity.
