Recently, we discussed what Illuminated Manuscripts are and how the artwork used to create them is of historical significance. We discussed how each book created during the Medieval times had to be written by hand and that some of the pages were beautifully and ornately decorated. Students chose a letter (this could be an initial of their first, last or middle name) and rewrote it in a font of their choice. Students then created their version of an "Illuminated Manuscript" by including other decorative elements. See the finished examples below!
