Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Medieval Art of Illumination as Applied to Lincoln's Gettysburg Address Illumination in art received its first impetus with the introduction of Parchment. Parchment, as a receiving medium, had distinct advantages over the earlier form of Papyrus, being less brittle at the edges, and withstanding corrections and expunging better. Moreover, Parchment had a freer surface and thus proved to be the spark of life that gave birth to Illumination in manuscript.

Download or read book A Primer of the Art of Illumination for the Use of Beginners written by Freeman Delamotte and published by . This book was released on 1860 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A basic manual on medieval illumination providing both a historical overview and practical how-to guide. The book is divided into two parts, "the first dealing with the history, definition, and characteristics of illumination, with particular reference to manuscripts owned by the British Museum, and the second providing practical directions on how to illuminate manuscripts, an overview of colors and how to make them, and an array of handy "tricks" detailing the many different techniques one could use to make modern manuscripts look more authentic. Freeman also included individual tables listing the dates, titles, interesting points, and museum locations of manuscripts from England, France, Italy, Germany, and the Near East to help his readers find for themselves actual examples on public display at the British Museum that could be used as historical and technical references in comparison to their own artistic efforts--even going so far as to point out that, despite popular belief to the contrary, female enthusiasts were also welcome at the British Museum, pointing out in the text's final note that "there are seats specially set apart for ladies" in the Museum's reading room"--An online description, "Delamotte's 1860 Primer of the Art of Illumination" by the Rare Books and Manuscripts Library of The Ohio State University

Book The Gettysburg Address

Download or read book The Gettysburg Address written by Jonathan Hennessey and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2013-08-13 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fully illustrated graphic adaptation that offers a new look at the Gettysburg Address, the bloody battle that prompted it, and the Civil War Most of us can recall "Four score and seven years ago," but much of what we know about this historic speech, and what it has to say about the Civil War itself, has been lost since we left grade school. The Gettysburg Address offers a revolutionary way to experience Lincoln's masterwork. Striking at the underlying meaning of Lincoln's words, it uses the Address to tell the whole story of the Civil War. We see how bitter seeds sown by the Founding Fathers sprouted into a bloody war, and ultimately blossomed into the progress and justice of the Civil Rights era. The book depicts pivotal events that led to the upheaval of the secession crisis, the crucial Battle of Gettysburg, and the conflict's still-unfolding legacy with firsthand accounts from Americans from all walks of life: slaves, soldiers, citizens, and, of course, Abraham Lincoln himself—the most transformational president in U.S. history. Writer Jonathan Hennessey and illustrator Aaron McConnell illuminate history with vibrant, detailed graphics and captions that will give you a fresh understanding of this vital speech, which defined America's most tragic war and marked a new path forward.
