RE: Magical Images Hiding in Books

in Silver Bloggers2 years ago

Of course, I'm going to be a little bit biased with my love of old music... but I do love the old books. There is just something quite personal about each of them... even the old prints and manuscripts of music that I use for my work are just beautiful to read from... the modern copies just seem so sterile in comparison. Although, I have more than enough modern classical colleagues who complain that the old parts are unreadable.

Sort:  

the old books definite have their appeal, there was a workmanship to them that isn't present in the mass produced volumes. Add fore-edge painting to an older volume and you've got even more craftsmanship.
