The Gospel Of Saint John - Calligraphy And Illuminations By Jane Sullivan

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, it is a prayerful and sometimes playful piece of art as well as a unique presentation of the sacred text.

Following the revered King James Version, the Gospei is beautifully handwritten in traditional calligraphic script, richly illuminated with original illustrations throughout.

A year in the making, every page is packed with detail and represents a display of reverence for the text. Jane Sullivan brings together the medieval and the modern as a 21st-century artist, 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.
