Hi
ANSWER
Miniature painting is a traditional style of art that is very detailed, often referred to as painting or working “in miniature”. Because of their origins as illuminations, they are also painted to have as smooth of a surface as possible (it is also suggested that miniature art may have been influenced by the medals of ancient Rome as well)
Some early manuscripts contain miniature paintings on their pages that depict beautiful arrangements of life sized flower arrangements on their borders.
The history of miniature painting is also seen throughout the world in various other cultures.
The miniature helped to convey the story and meaning of the written word. Therefore, the art of miniature painting is directly connected to the book arts.
The various sized illuminations (pictures) were cut out of these books or documents so that they could be carried more easily.
Thank You
