## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Not for Islamic Illumination
  

*by A***L on Reviewed in India on 2 May 2019*

I bought this book to learn Islamic Illumination but there is hardly any mention of Islamic Illumination techniques except for one Moroccan pattern. Instead, it covers European/Christian styles.However, it is useful for artists who want to learn all the processes from scratch, including making pigments and using gold leaf and shell gold.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
    Buen libro.
  
  

*by K***. on Reviewed in Mexico on 24 September 2019*

Considerando el precio, creo que el libro está bastante bien. Contiene detalles muy prácticos para alguien que no sabe nada del tema y también para quienes ya tengan cierta experiencia y quieran una orientación adicional. Incluye explicaciones para el uso de técnicas tradicionales, pero también da alternativas para quienes no quieran quieran tomarse la molestia de usar materiales que son difíciles de conseguir.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
    Para o iniciante na arte da iluminura
  
  

*by I***. on Reviewed in Brazil on 22 January 2021*

A autora apresenta brevemente a história da iluminura, e depois mostra em detalhes os passos do processo utilizando os materiais o mais próximo possível do que se utilizava na Idade Média, com pergaminho e tintas produzidas artesanalmente (ou mesmo as aquarelas ou guaches prontos). Muito bom, inclusive a qualidade da impressão do livro!
