Calligraphy

We are introducing the attractive world of calligraphy from beginners to those who aim to become teachers and artists. Calligraphy is not only a traditional typeface, but also a modern style arrangement, and the beautiful initials of colored manuscripts, which is the origin of calligraphy, the world where 26 alphabets change in various ways will never get tired. The slow and polite writing time and the encounter with wonderful words enrich your daily life. Calligraphy is a wonderful art that visually expresses not only the beauty of calligraphy characters, which has the etymology of "beautifully written letters," but also the "leaf of words" that resonates in the heart.

Illuminated Manuscript

The Latin alphabet, which was perfected in the 1st century BC, has changed with Christian culture in various forms over time and area, and has been decorated with brilliant decorations such as decorative initials and decorative borders. A typical medieval manuscript decoration is the Celtic manuscript decoration created in a Celtic monastery that began in Ireland.

In addition to celtic knots and spirals, as well as animals, birds, and characters that appear intertwined, are drawn vividly in the Celtic decorative manuscripts such as "Lindeth Fern Gospel" and "The Book of Kells". Experience a strange world beyond your imagination and enjoy the fascinating world of Celtic patterns.
