«Drago en el Jardín del Edén» is the cultural history essay by Peter Mason, published by Vervuert Verlagsges. in hardback (212 pages, in Spanish).
The work starts from the Canary Island dragon tree that Bosch depicts in «El jardín de las delicias» and, through case studies, traces the routes by which the first images of the Canaries reached the Netherlands, Germany and New Spain; conversely, images and objects from the New World were incorporated into the islands' cultural heritage.
Published in 2018, the book's subtitle is «Las Islas Canarias en la circulación transatlántica de imágenes en el mundo ibérico, siglos XVI-XVII».
For readers of art and cultural history interested in the links between the Canaries, Europe and America in the 16th and 17th centuries.
