The Lord of the Rings Statue 1/6 Aragorn, Hunter of the Plains (Classic Series) 32 cm
The 20th Anniversary of The Lord of The Rings movies has a special significance to us here at the Workshop, and we are delighted to commemorate the upcoming event with a brand-new series of iconic Middle-earth figures. Let the celebrations begin!With the loss of Gandalf and the breaking of the Fellowship, many would be forgiven for falling to despair, but not Aragorn. Most would call it a fool's errand, chasing down the roving band of elite Uruk-hai to rescue Merry and Pippin, but not Aragorn. Brave, tenacious, and kind-hearted, Aragorn proved time again the worth and strength of his character. Solidifying his position as a defender of peace within Middle-earth.While Frodo and Sam pick their way slowly towards Mordor through the labyrinthine Emyn Muil, Merry and Pippin are captives of the brutal Uruk-hai.

Productomschrijving

The 16th century was revolutionized by scientific and artistic novelties, not the least in the anatomical and medical world. In this richly illustrated book a multitude of academic scholars present new findings concerning Vesalius and his contemporaries. One of those discoveries includes a preparatory sketch by Jan Steven van Calcar for a drawing in Vesalius' famous 'Fabrica', called 'The Philosopher'. Also authentic letters, written by Vesalius to his friends Benedetto Varchi and Ottavio Landi, are presented and translated for the first time, and are thoroughly discussed, shedding new light on crucial periods of Vesalius' life, such as his leave from academic Padua, exchanged for imperial service to Charles V, or his contribution to the treatment of Philips II's son, crown prince Carlos in Spain. Anatomical novelties, discovered by Vesalius' friends and contemporaries, are equally broadly exposed, like Canani's input in human arm musculature or Valverde's 'corrections' of Vesalius'
