Dark Visions the Art of Corvis Nocturnum
For years E.R. Vernor, better known by his pen name, Corvis Nocturnum, has been illustrating book covers, catalogs, bands CD covers and has had work in Julie Strain's Nightmare on Pinup Street. Now, collected here is a glimpse of the art itself, but various never before seen images of the works in progress and the artists background and thoughts behind the works themselves.From the introduction by Joseph Vargo: "The imagery that is depicted in the art of Corvis Nocturnum is at times surreal, stark and unsettling, yet there is an underlying beauty to be found within each painting. As a writer, Corvis boldly strives to shed light on the dark subcultures of the world and his libertine attitude carries over into his artwork, which unflinchingly examines similar taboo topics. Unrestricted by conventional boundaries, his Satanic and erotic themes truly embrace the darkness within his soul. His artwork mixes traditional gothic elements such as ravens and vampires with fallen angels and S&M vixens to create raw impressions of a dark and unadulterated realm."

The Devil Is in the Details an Illustration Collection of Fiendish Art of Satan Through the Ages
The devil hasn't always been depicted in art as we know him today. From the Middle Ages through to the Renaissance and into modern times Satan has had many different incarnations in art. Scholars say that no artistic representation of Satan was produced before the sixth century., and was only made official by the Ecumenical Council of 553. From then on, however, and throughout the Middle Ages, Satan's imagery was everywhere, in manuscripts, in paintings, sculptures and architecture. As Christianity grew and spread, so did belief in the Devil, who was blamed for illness, accidents, immoral behavior, crop failures and natural disasters. He was also said to be the leader of heretics enemies of the Church. This beautifully illustrated book by E.R. Vernor details the history of artwork of the Devil with over two hundred woodcuts, drawings, and paintings and postcards from the earliest days of printing to the 1900s.
