Alexander explains that in the early period, Christian monasteries and churches were the main centers for the copying of manuscripts, and so the majority of illuminators were monks working in and for their own monasteries.

Description:
Yale University Press, 1992 4to (28 cm), VIII, 214 pp. Publisher's cloth and dust jacket (dj slightly rubbed at extremities, price ticket on front wrapper). A classic survey of European manuscript illumination from the fourth to the sixteenth century, Jonathan Alexander illustrates his discussion with examples from across Europe. He delves into the social and historical contexts of illuminators' lives, explores their methods of work, and showcases the breadth and depth of their visual sources. Alexander also examines how these sources were adapted, copied, or ingeniously created anew, shedding light on the dynamic evolution of manuscript illumination throughout the ages.
