Illuminated Manuscripts Theme


Cindy Tonkin - October 14, 2026

When I visited New York in 2008 James was well-informed about the lovely places to go, and we spent a pleasant afternoon at the J. Pierpont Morgan Library.

As a souvenir in a time when the US Dollar was having a bad day but the Aussie dollar was having good ones, I bought a miniature book of illuminated manuscripts.

In 2026 I am plundering it to alter other books. So it’s an altered book series from an altered book.
