"The latin phrase multum in parvo means literally much in little. Largeness of meaning conveyed with the utmost economy of means, the particular transformed into the universal, these are the essentials of much in little, and they have been one of the greatest challenges to the creative imagination." -- From book jacket.
This book also includes 14 black and white prints by William Blake, Goya, Rockwell Kent, Max Weber, Rembrandt, Jacques Callot, Chang Yee and others.
