Cover of Antonio Ferraiuolo: Breve storia della miniatura (ePUB)

Una
miniatura è la pittura ornamentale con cui venivano decorati i manoscritti e i libri antichi. In origine il termine aveva un significato più ristretto: la miniatura era l’immagine realizzata per decorare le lettere iniziali dei capitoli in un manoscritto, tradizionalmente di colore rosso. Il termine deriva verosimilmente dal latino minium, un particolare minerale dal quale si ricavava il colore rosso. A partire dal XIV secolo, il diffondersi di illustrazioni di piccolo formato fece sì che il significato di ‘miniatura’ passasse ad indicare dipinti, oggetti e forme di dimensioni ridotte.
I mini-ebook di Passerino Editore sono guide agili, essenziali e complete, per orientarsi nella storia del mondo.
