Illuminating

Posted by cmgaylard on May 19, 2014 at 10:30 AM

There is a great little second-hand book shop in Helmsley near Rievaulx Abbey. I beat my daughters to this beautiful little 1945 Penguin hardback edition. I have always been drawn to miniatures and fine detail, I didnt realise that the word for this work: 'limning' derived from 'Illuminating' as in the illumination of manuscripts.
