Revival of Medieval Illumination. Renaissance de l'enluminure m di vale. Nineteenth-Century Belgium Manuscripts and Illuminations from a European Perspective. Manuscrits et enluminures belges du XIXe siecle et leur contexte europeen ENG / FR
, Leuven University Press / Kadoc, 2007 Hardcover, 336 pages, ENG / FR., 290 x 230 x 27 mm, NEW / NOUVEAU, illustrations in colour / b/w. ISBN 9789058675910.
The art of illumination, usually associated with the Middle Ages, experienced a spectacular revival in nineteenth-century Western Europe. 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and precious manuscripts and include many occasional documents and devotional images.Richly illustrated with unpublished masterworks, The Revival of Medieval Illumination is an overview of the form by fifteen authors who do not limit their approach to the traditional questions of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. // L'art de l'enluminure, bien connu pour le Moyen Age, fit l?objet d?un regain d?interet spectaculaire au XIXe siecle. Le contexte resolument different leur confere toutefois une autre signification. La production des ateliers civils et religieux presente une grande diversite artistique, stylistique, technique et typologique. Elle excede largement le monde des manuscrits exceptionnels et precieux et comprend nombre de documents de circonstance, de livres d'or, d'images de devotion, etc. Abondamment illustre de chefs-d' oeuvre inedits, le present ouvrage presente pour la premiere fois une vue d?ensemble de l?important phenomene de la renaissance de l?enluminure medievale. Les quinze auteurs n?ont pas voulu se limiter aux questions traditionnelles de l?histoire de l?art. Les composantes historiques, socioculturelles, ideologiques et religieuses de ce phenomene complexe, variant dans le temps et selon les pays, sont essentielles pour comprendre l?evolution et le succes de l?art de l?enluminure au XIXe siecle.

Manuscript Illumination in Lyons (1473-1530)
Turnhout, Brepols, 2002 Hardback, 210 p., incl. 5 colour + 208 bl/w. ills., 190 x 250 mm. ISBN 9782503512327.
This book surveys the art of manuscript illumination after the introduction of printing to Lyons in 1473, using the manuscripts themselves as its main source, and thus identifying and assessing the art of Lyons? busiest illuminators? workshops. In the late fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries, Lyons grew into one of Europe's great commercial centres and even served as an unofficial second capital of the French kingdom. While scholars have long recognized the city's prominent role in the history of printing, this is the first book to survey the art of manuscript illumination after the introduction of printing to Lyons in 1473. Using the manuscripts themselves as its main source, this study identifies and assesses the art of Lyons's busiest illuminators' workshops. It then reviews the nature of patronage and the activity of the illuminators during the close of the Middle Ages and the dawn of the Renaissance. The picture that emerges is one of a tightly knit community of artists adapting their production of fine religious and secular manuscripts to the changing demand of the clergy, the merchant class, the nobility, writers, and members of the court. A descriptive catalogue provides complementary information on 136 illuminated manuscripts, books, and leaves, many of them never published at length. The work is illustrated by a broad selection of colour and black-and-white reproductions. Languages: English.

This publication is the first to appear in a major new series of catalogues covering all Western medieval illuminated manuscripts in Cambridge, excluding only the manuscripts in the University Library which are being catalogued separately. The entries are based on the most recent studies undertaken by the Cambridge Illuminations Research Project; they are organised geographically by place of origin, and, within that grouping, listed chronologically. The present two-volume catalogue deals with the early manuscripts produced in the Frankish Kingdoms, the splendid, richly illustrated books from the Northern and Southern Netherlands ranging from the thirteenth to the sixteenth century, illuminations from the Meuse region, manuscripts both in Latin and the vernacular from the late eleventh to the end of the sixteenth century from Germany, and lastly an interesting group of books from Bohemia, Austria and Hungary. The focus of the catalogue is on the illumination, and includes detailed listings of all miniatures, decoration and ornamentation, which are made easily accessible by the inclusion of an exhaustive iconographic index. Entries also include much information on the textual contents of the manuscripts and on their provenance, as well as the most recent bibliographical references. Every manuscript catalogued is also illustrated, generally with several images, providing readers with a corpus of some 750 illustrations which are all reproduced in full colour.

Review "These volumes triumphantly justify 'paper cataloguing'. [...] The authors and sponsors are to be warmly congratulated and urged to complete a series that makes a fundamental contribution to knowledge." (Catherine Reynolds, in The Burlington Magazine CLIII, March 2011, p. 182) On ne peut que se r jouir de la qualit de ces deux premiers volumes et souhaiter la parution rapide des tomes suivants. (A. Ch telet, dans Art et M tiers du Livre 31, D c 2009-f v 2010, p. 91-92) "The first two beautifully designed volumes of Illuminated Manuscripts in Cambridge have all the indices and finding aids (including an index of biblical and non-biblical iconography) to facilitate further research. They are brimming with ideas, are full of dissertation topics, and are testaments to the bounty ? intellectual and sensuous or even sybaritic ? spread out before students of medieval manuscripts." (Kathryn M. Rudy, in HNA Review of Books) "This updating of the traditional manuscript catalogue is a very useful addition to the scholarship on manuscripts in English collections, in part because of the precision and brevity of the updated information, but especially because of the sumptuous illustrations, which provide the irreplaceable visual context for the textual information the catalogue presents." (Stephen Clancy, in Speculum 86/3, July 2011, p. 789) "The series will be a landmark in manuscript studies, and one can only hope that further support will hasten further projected volumes." (Rowan Watson, in: The Burlington Magazine, vol. CLIV, 2012, p. 847) "Esta calidad editorial y cient fica, presentes en los dem s tomos y vol menes que conforman la serie Illuminated Manuscripts in Cambridge de Harvey Miller/Brepols, es un excelente modelo a tener en cuenta para la edici n de futuros cat logos de manuscritos iluminados." (Isabel Escandell Proust, in: Codex Aquilarensis, 29, 2013, p. 289-304) (?) un instrument de travail pr cieux pour le chercheur et l?amateur clair . (Marc Gil, dans Le Moyen Age, 1, 2017, p. 207)
