Summary

In a darkly comic celebration of celestial and earthly precipitations from the past, Marjory Wunsch and Rosamond Wolff Purcell present a dozen paintings and poems of historical and mythological events as viewed within the confines of the traditional snow globe. Rather than generic, nostalgic views of city skylines or White Christmases, the encapsulated territories in this collection become dangerous places where substances other than gentle snow may fall: volcanic ash, hail, birds, fish, or fog. Disasters range from the demise of the dinosaurs to the eruption of Vesuvius to the Battle of Agincourt.
