Artemis & Winker Verlag. Lexicon Iconographicum Mythologiae Classicae. (Zurich, 1981-1999). In 8 volumes (each in two parts, so 16 individual books), plus Supplements (2) and Indices (2). Each volume in individual slip case. Published serially from 1981 to 2009, the Lexicon is the most extensive resource of its kind, providing "full and detailed information." Entries are arranged alphabetically, with black-and-white illustrations indexed to their respective entries. New condition.
From the Collection of a Connoisseur.
The Lexicon Iconographicum Mythologiae Classicae was prepared by international scholars from nearly 40 countries who contributed in their language of choice, resulting in entries written variously in English, German, French, or Italian. LIMC also offers a multilingual online database that is updated independently of the print publication. Scholars have termed the Lexicon an "indispensable research instrument," "monumental,"and "magnificent." Sale of all volumes was for many years tightly controlled, with the price for a full set maintained at 15,000 CHF.
