This refers to the decoration on the pages of a manuscript. It is also called illumination or miniature. This includes illustrations that correspond to the content of the main text of the manuscript, abstract patterns placed around the edges of the page, and elaborate initials at the beginning of a sentence. Since manuscript illustrations are viewed up close as a relatively small screen containing the text, they have different characteristics from large-scale paintings in terms of screen composition and color effects.
