Overview
The phenomenon of woodcut illumination is limited to Venice in around 1470 but despite this is still of a certain artistic, technical and cultural importance. In an example found in Perugia (the vernacular Bible printed in October 1471), water damage enables us to see very clearly the marks left by the woodblock before the illuminator painted over it. It is in fact the second copy known (after the one in Manchester) with figures similarly 'stamped'. The printing of the introductory rubric, in ochre-coloured ink to imitate gold, is also noteworthy.
