About This Book

Hugues Demeude shares his passion for the decorated letter in a succinct historical text and a vast range of beautifully reproduced examples from the 8th century to the 20th, from sacred illuminated manuscripts to mass-produced postcards. Lovers of art and design will relish this decorative profusion of letters, which includes the Corbie Psalter, Les Tres Riches Heures du Duc de Berry and the work of such famous artists as Albrecht Durer, Hans Holbein, Lucas Cranach, Honore Daumier and Kate Greenaway.
