Graphics of a late manuscript book and a noble album of Galicia ХVІІІ –ХІХ c.

Abstract

It is noted that religious themes in the graphics of Galicia (late manuscript with original graphics of metrics, irmologies, synodics, noble album) are of significant artistic value. By the nature of the style, they resembled the influences of the late Baroque and Romanticism, the decorative flatness of the work of the educated clergy and the folk primitive. It is emphasized that the noble album in the elite society also popularized the moral and spiritual aspect of religion, but here the spirituality prevailed. The illustrations had the character of quick impromptu sketches, or a detailed drawing to academicism.
