Manuscript Making in the Middle Ages #ArtTuesday
Every step involved in this creation is incredible. Wow. From Getty Museum on YouTube:
An illuminated manuscript is a book written and decorated completely by hand. Illuminated manuscripts were among the most precious objects produced in the Middle Ages and the early Renaissance, primarily in monasteries and courts. Society’s rulers–emperors, kings, dukes, cardinals, and bishops–commissioned the most splendid manuscripts.
