V&A Museum

Fragmented Illuminations (2021) V&A Museum, London, Viewed: 16/10/21)

I went to the exhibition on Fragmented Illuminations in the Museum which looked at medieval and renaissance manuscript cuttings.

The books had jewel-like illuminations and were valued for their beauty and relevance to the history of painting.

I really liked looking at this exhibition and seeing how intricate the artists made the letters how they combined letter forms with illustrations. I can definitely take inspiration from these manuscripts by choosing to take time and precision to create documents.
