There is no doubt that at its best, mediæval pattern design can match that of any other era, even though it has often been overlooked in favour of the styles devised after the Middle Ages. However, it was during the Romanesque and Gothic periods that two-dimensional decorative elements and structures were developed that remain popular even today. Their particularly strong qualities include bold and powerful forms and subdued colours. Mediæval Patterns offers more than one hundred outstanding samples, carefully restored and reproduced in a very high quality.
Mediæval Patterns is part of a series that covers the decorative styles prevalent in Europe since the beginning of the Western calendar.
