This completely different context gave the illuminations another import. The output of the lay and religious workshops reveals a great artistic, stylistic, technical, and thematic diversity. The works illuminated go far beyond the world of exceptional and precious manuscripts and include many occasional documents and devotional images.Richly illustrated with unpublished masterworks, The Revival of Medieval Illumination is an overview of the form by fifteen authors who do not limit their approach to the traditional questions of art history. Rather, they explore the historical, sociocultural, ideological and religious components of the revival, which changed according to time and country, in order to understand the evolution and success of the art of illumination in the long nineteenth century.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Thomas Coomans\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9058675912\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789058675910\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Leuven University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/15\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 336\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 4.15lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.33h x 8.94w x 1.12d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/01\/2008 pg. 222","brand":"Thomas Coomans","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43941307515135,"sku":"9789058675910","price":64.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_e0c2c491-bdbb-48ac-8105-55f96cd5450c.jpg?v=1681452155","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-revival-of-medieval-illumination-thomas-coomans-9789058675910","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
