Renaissance illumination information


Giulio Clovio, Adoration of the Magi. Double page from the Book of Hours of Cardinal Farnese, 1537–1546, Pierpont Morgan Library, M.69 (fols. 38v-39).

Renaissance illumination refers to the production of illuminated manuscripts in Western Europe in the late 15th and 16th centuries, influenced by the representational techniques and motifs of Renaissance painting. With the invention of printing, book painting did not disappear abruptly, but continued in certain luxury manuscripts, and even in some printed works. Illuminators of the period used techniques of perspective representation and iconographic themes specific to the period. Restricted to luxury works, this type of production declined in the second half of the 16th century, as engraving became increasingly competitive.
