About
Piscator's Bible (Theatrum Biblicum, Hoc Est Historiae Sacrae Veteris Et Novi Testamenti Tabulis Aeneis Expressae : opus praestantißimorum huius ac superioris seculi pictorum ... / in lucem editum per Nicolaum Iohannis Piscatorem. Amsterdam, 1643) was widely distributed in Russia and, like other engraved Western European editions of the Bible, served not only as a subject of admiration for tsarist, boyar and merchant chambers, but also as an important source of iconography for Russian miniaturists, icon painters and masters of monumental painting of the Middle Ages and Modern period.
