This completely revised and updated edition of Illuminating the Word devotes a separate chapter to each of the Bibles seven volumes. Readers get a behind-the-scenes tour of the creation of each volume, with a fascinating window into the activities, challenges, and struggles at Donald Jacksons Scriptorium in Wales. We can practically watch, through the eyes of every artist and calligrapher who participated in the project, the Bibles stunning illuminations move from conception to completion. This edition includes a completely new chapter, on the scripts used in The Saint Johns Bible that will fascinate calligraphers and lovers of the art. Still another new chapter details the production of the Heritage Edition, a high-quality, fine art facsimile of the original that makes The Saint Johns Bible available to a wider audience than the singular manuscript.
