Illuminated Manuscripts from Belgium and the Netherlands at the J. Paul Getty Museum

Like all the J. Paul Getty Museum books I ordered, I absolutely love it. That series is never disapointing. Not to me anyway.

See my reviews on other parts of this excellent series for my general comments"French Illuminated Manuscripts in the J Paul Getty Museum""Illuminated Manuscripts of Germany and Central Europe--"The Getty has put on several major exhibitions of Illuminated Manuscripts from either their collection or from other museums- these volumes are out of print and often expensiveThe Getty is to be commended for its excellent inexpensive series that introduce many to the pleasures of looking at Illuminated Manuscripts. The Getty has a very good collection for the short time it has been in existence.The Amazon description covers a number of the more important Manuscripts and artists in this volumeThere were a number of manuscripts I really liked in this volume but the same could be said about the other volumes in the series.All the volumes are well worth getting if you are interested in Illuminated Manusripts
