''Types and Figures of the Bible: Illustrated by the Art of the Early and Middle Ages'' is a book written by Louisa Twining and published in 1855. The book explores the use of symbolism and allegory in the Bible, and how these concepts were depicted in the art of the early and middle ages. Twining provides an in-depth analysis of various biblical figures and events, such as Adam and Eve, Noah’s Ark, and the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, and how they were represented in art during different periods of history. The book is richly illustrated with over 200 engravings, woodcuts, and lithographs of medieval and Renaissance art, showcasing the various artistic styles and techniques used to convey biblical stories and teachings. ''Types and Figures of the Bible'' is a fascinating exploration of the intersection of art and religion, and how these two disciplines have influenced and informed each other throughout history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
