Editor's Notes
- First, let’s look at the history of symbol-making and the book.
- There is an old saying that “a picture is worth a thousand words.” This was certainly true for cultures that had no written language.
- Pictures served to tell the stories they felt were important to record.
- The stories recorded important events and personal stories
- Though we do not know for certain what the meaning of the early rock art was, it seems safe to assume that some served religious purposes.
- Early alphabets evolved from early pictograms, or pictures which represented things or ideas.
- Images incised into the rock surface are called petroglyphs.
- To ancient Egyptians, reaching the afterlife depended upon living a good life and having perfect burial arrangements. For important people who could afford it, a “Book of the Dead” was produced to help them make a successful transition to the afterlife.
- Egyptian artworks depended heavily on symbolic images.
- Sometime around 400 AD, the Greeks developed a simplified alphabet. Many Greeks and Romans were able to read, and the wealthy had libraries in their homes. Books were completely handmade, one at a time. Some of the books were lavishly lettered and decorated. These are called “Illuminated Manuscripts.”
- A “Book of Hours” was individually made for a lay people who was a very religious Christian. The book typically included a set of psalms which would be recited or sung,
- Vellum was made from the skins of calf, lamb or kid. It was used before paper became widely available.
- Breviaries were liturgical books containing public prayers, hymns, psalms and readings for everyday use, usually for priests.
- Paper had also been invented in China in 105 AD and had reached Europe through trade routes. By the 1400s when Gutenberg invented his press, paper was commonly used instead of parchment (vellum, made from goatskin).
- Illustrations add impact to creative writing.
- Continuous Narration is often used in children’s books because little text is needed.
- Book designers use specific fonts, colors, borders and other elements to visually tie all of the various parts into an integrated whole.
- Varying perspective requires imaginative reading of the text, and can keep the book visually interesting.
- Another perspective from the same book.
- Simple line drawings can be very effective and are often used as cartoons.
- Line art can also be elegant and dramatic.
- Switching to a dark background adds interest.
- Simplicity can be very effective.
- This piece uses color and diagonal lines to create a sense of motion and a dark, cold mood.
- Creating books with no text are a challenge to an artist.
