Description
Illuminated manuscripts from England and France are among the greatest masterpieces of medieval European art.
This beautiful book showcases dozens of the finest examples, some of which have never before been exhibited and are rarely reproduced.
It reveals the close artistic and intellectual connections between Anglo-Saxon and Norman England and medieval France, where scribes and illuminators often shared stylistic ideas and subjects.
We include a wide range of important texts and illuminations from the collections of the British Library and the Bibliothèque nationale de France, including ornamented initials, delicate line drawings and fully painted scenes on gold grounds, illustrated with more than 75 full-page colour images.
