It does not matter in which era you live: they have always inspired the same sense of wonder. Disturbing, terrifying, and at the same time profoundly attractive\u2014creatures that seem to gaze down upon us from above.<\/p>\n<p>I confess the attraction these figures awaken in me, not only for their iconography, but also because they embody a magnificent example of the creative freedom of the artist. Through gargoyles, sculptors unleashed their imagination, shaping unusual and fascinating figures with an extraordinary power of seduction. True masters of stonework, they were and still are capable of transforming a practical function into genuine works of art.<\/p>\n<p>In my book The Gargoyle and Its Iconography, as an Art Historian specialized in gargoyles, I invite you to discover these astonishing figures: their origins, typologies, functions, and historical evolution. A rigorous and passionate study that will captivate you and, after reading it, will change the way you look at gargoyles forever.<\/p>\n<p>\u26a0\ufe0f Please note: this book is available only in
