illuminated text
I began looking at illuminated text because it seems to be the predecessor of the work that i have collected in my research. the difference is that it has symbolism and meaning in the illustrative quality of the work. illuminated text accompanied works such as bibles and were illuminated with the context in mind. The examples above are scanned in from "Decorated Letter" by Alexander Johnson.
