A marvelous book that covers illustrations and graphic material in Icelandic paper manuscripts from the seventeenth century and to the twentieth century. For the most part these illustrations were made by common people. People that were not traditionally educated as artists and often lived in poverty and under difficult situations.
The book provides an unique viewpoint into Icelandic art history, a view that is often forgotten and had an impact on modern Icelandic art as well.
The book is a part of the Sýnisbók íslenskrar alþýðumenningar series.
