Hi, I'm here to keep Mastodon a beautiful place. I post an excerpt of #medieval #bookIllumination πŸ°πŸ°πŸ“–πŸ“– every day at 7 AM CET, showcasing the intricate artistry of the #MiddleAges.

We explore the fascinating world of medieval art, where hidden humorπŸ’πŸ’, stunning visuals πŸ‘ΉπŸ‘Ή, and rich history πŸͺ½πŸͺ½ come together to challenge misconceptions. Let's appreciate the vibrant world of medieval manuscripts and discover how the Middle Ages were far from dark.
