"¿Sabes de qué están hechos los sueños? ¿Hechos? Sólo son sueños. No. No lo son. La gente cree que no son reales porque no son materia, partículas. Son reales. Están hechos de puntos de vista, imágenes, recuerdos, juegos de palabras y esperanzas perdidas"
Neil Gaiman

Arte, en su mayoria de Morpheus, con su respectiva interpretacion del personaje, por artistas del calibre de Michael zulli,Mike Mignola, kelley jones,Brian Bolland, Alex ross, Simon beasley, Moebius, y no podia faltar la portada de Dave Mckean.
Un deleite visual!!

Anyone else notice how Dream looks like Gaiman?

[Paul · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is basically a comic book, oh 'scuse me, graphic novel without any story.
However, each page is a brilliantly executed illustration or painting by some of the best of today's current com... er, graphic novel artist.
Some are simple portraits, but most tell a story within a single image... as all great art must and does.

This is a collection of portraits of Dream, The Sandman, as imagined by various artists. The overall concept hasn't changed, but each artist puts their own spin on Morpheus. Some are great, some are not to my taste, but all of them are incarnations of our beloved Dream Lord.

Appreciating the Sandman art book is uncannily similar to the harrowing beauty appreciation in one of Robert Browning's poems: “Paint / Must never hope to reproduce the faint / Half-flush that dies along her throat.” yeah right.

straight up just a picture book

the art is fire icl

[Phillip Goodman]

a wonderful art book, each picture speaks volumes, and perhaps gives insight into the dreams of the artists, or perhaps just into their ideas about the character, but that sounds much more pedestrian haha and i prefer my first theory. Simon Bisely's depiction of Dream entwined with rotten corpses or perhaps zombies, while being watched over by a particularly and uncharacteristically buxom Death is particularly interesting with a view to both the story arch of the comic book itself and the psychology of dreams and nightmares.

Si este es el libro que tiene todas las portadas de Sandman, entonces después tengo que subir la edición española de Norma.

Better than its predecessor and its successor, his gallery of Dream of the Endless contains many pretty pictures.

Algunas de las imágenes son realmente preciosas, me gustaría enmarcarlas y tenerlas en mi habitación.
