Hieronymus Bosch
The Garden of Earthly Delights

September 21 2014

Let’s take a close look at the masterpiece by Hieronymus Bosch, his best-known triptych. He painted The Garden of Earthly Delights between 1490 and 1510. We all know it but the delight is in the detail I tell you. When I came across this high-res photo it kept me exploring in wonder for a long time.

There’s a fantastic interactive documentary providing an in-depth tour through The Garden of Earthly Delights. In a web interface the visitor will be taken on an audio-visual journey, including sound, music, video and images to enrich the storytelling.
