The borders tell the story in high detail like the story of letter D with the dragon and the queen holding shields starting from the bottom is how I read it. It tells a deep story about pig with wings and how it got the wings… the book of hours I think 🤔?

Thank you for this! I'm trying to translate it to Portuguese. Could someone tell me what is he talking from 10:43 to 10:50? I know she'll ground it up, but can't figure out the end of the phrase...

It is about grinding lapis lazuli into a powder to make ultramarine - intensive blue color pigment. Lapis lazuli came from mines in Afghanistan. It was the most expensive blue that painters could use. It was used the most in 14th and 15th centuries together with vermilion (red pigment) and gold.

Snails are medieval personification of fighting with idleness.

Thats crazy cause in one of the Commandment their shall be no image of anything in Heaven.

The majority of this video we're looking at middle aged modern British people talk. Let us see the work! And when they do show it there is a filter and depth of field. I came here for art.

all of these comments are from school think about who in the world is looking at this in there free time 🧐🤯

just do your work

Such condescending "explanations" from contemporary experts... A medieval artist (or rather the church-man who advised him) would be amazed at the opaqueness of our contemporary experts' talk... and we, viewers of this documentary, should be disappointed that nobody paid to talk here finds it meaningful to explain the (uncomfortably moral?) symbolism of each illustration.
