Beginning Illumination: Learning the Ancient Art, Step by Step by Claire TraversMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
An excellent treatment of the subject, though sadly all too brief. Aspiring artists should find this fascinating and helpful, as it covers the technical side of illumination thoroughly and with excellent step-by-step descriptions and examples. I just wish it had been more in-depth, with more space devoted to history, a longer gallery with more extensive interpretive text, and perhaps a bit more on the interrelationship between text and graphics.
