Hi, I'm here to keep Mastodon a beautiful place. I post an excerpt of #medieval #bookIllumination 🏰📖 every day at 7 AM CET, showcasing the intricate artistry of the #MiddleAges.
We explore the fascinating world of medieval art, where hidden humor🐒, stunning visuals 👹, and rich history 🪽 come together to challenge misconceptions. Let's appreciate the vibrant world of medieval manuscripts and discover how the Middle Ages were far from dark.
