Živković’s unique blend of scientific rigor and literary imagination makes this a captivating read for collectors interested in thought-provoking explorations of visual culture, semiotics, and the nature of reality. The English translation by Randall A. Major and Youchan Ito preserves the author’s lyrical prose, inviting readers to ponder the profound questions raised by the act of interpreting images.

While bearing the marks of its library origins, this copy remains a solid example of a work that challenges conventional boundaries between disciplines, offering a stimulating journey into the realms of art, science, and philosophy.
