Illuminated Manuscripts by John William Bradley (1830–1916) is a classic art history text that explores the development of manuscript decoration from the early Christian era through the Renaissance. The book serves as a comprehensive guide to the techniques, materials, and historical evolution of illumination. It traces the art form from its Byzantine and Celtic origins through the Gothic period to its peak in the 15th century. Bradley explains the use of materials such as vellum, parchment, gold leaf, and various pigments. The text features analysis of famous works including the Book of Kells, the Lindisfarne Gospels, and the Tres Riches Heures du Duc de Berry. Beyond aesthetics, it discusses the social and religious roles of these manuscripts as symbols of power, prestige, and devotional tools. It is a modern reprint of Bradley’s original work, which was first published by Methuen & Co. in 1905. DOSTUPNO PREKO INTERNETSKE PRODAJE ODMAH, U DUĆANU U ROKU OD 24 SATA.
