These are beautiful manuscripts from Russian art/icons. The Russian iconigraphers created many of these selections for specific churches and monasteries and therefore were not available to the general populace. Ms. Popova, however, has made them available to us and the world. She explains the illustrations from both an hisorical and artistic viewpoint. Although some of the selections have been damaged or eroded over the years, their importance remains the same. Join Ms. Popova on a trip thru history and appreciate art that was created a thousand or more years ago.
I was looking for inspiration for a children's book I am illustrating. I realize that the images in the book are about 1000 years old, however, the quality of the some of the images was sometimes so spotty it was impossible to get a sense of the design. All in all, short of traveling to Russia, it would have been impossible to find a collection of so many examples in one place, so it was a good starting point.
