Overview

An exquisite fine art edition of St John's Gospel, illuminated by artist-calligrapher Jane Sullivan. Inspired by Celtic art and the beautiful illuminated manuscripts of the Middle Ages, this is a prayerful and sometimes playful piece of art as well as a unique presentation of this sacred text. Following the majestic King James Version, the Gospel is beautifully handwritten in traditional calligraphic script, richly illuminated with original illustrations throughout. A year in the making, the Gospel's every page is copiously illustrated and represents a display of reverence for the text. As a 21st-century artist, Jane Sullivan brings together the medieval and the modern, using high-quality gouaches, inks and paper, to create the finished book, which is carefully printed on high-grade wove paper. The result is a book to delight both eye and soul, inviting all to discover, or rediscover, this most mystical of the Gospels.
