Chaucer (c1343-1400), Canterbury Tales

Illuminated manuscript: section of Chaucer's Canterbury Tales.

Small section of the Prologue to Chaucer's Canterbury Tales.
This was done on genuine vellum which does not scan well, as the surface is not smooth,  but is an absolute joy to work on.
The original is 6" x 8", done with Sumi Ink and Sennelier Water Colours and 24ct Gold Leaf.
