Codex Seraphinianus

Codex Seraphinianus,[1] originally published in 1981, is an illustrated encyclopedia of an imaginary world, created by the Italian artist, architect, and industrial designer Luigi Serafini during thirty months, from 1976 to 1978.[2] The book is approximately 360 pages long (depending on edition), and written in a strange, generally unintelligible alphabet.[3]

 

Originally published in Italy, the book has since been released in several countries.[4]

 

It is believed that this book is in the public domain but this has not been confirmed.
