THE LUKE PORTFOLIO CONTIGUOUS IMAGES IN THE BOWYER BIBLE. Robert Bowyer (1758-1834) expanded his own copy of the Macklin Bible to 45 volumes after acquiring and inserting over 6200 different prints of Biblical events. The Bowyer Bible is now housed in Bolton Museums and Archives, England. Phillip Medhurst felt that because of the huge number of images it was difficult to see the wood for the trees; the illustrations of Luke’s Gospel were therefore photographed and numbered as a collection by him as a stand-alone collection by Phillip Medhurst in order to assist in the closer scrutiny of contiguous prints in one particular book of the Bible, with material (such as “The Good Samaritan”) which has become prevalent in popular culture. Philip De Vere has made series of PDFs from this portfolio in order to create discrete segments in which artists’ different treatments of the same subject may be observed. Medhurst’s numbering (001-706) is retained in these presentations. See https://archive.org/details/the-luke-portfolio-1-annunciation-to-mary and 15 other Portfolios in this series.

You really make it seem really easy with your presentation but I find this matter to be really something which I feel I’d never understand. It kind of feels too complicated and very broad for me. I’m having a look forward to your subsequent post, I’ll try to get the dangle of it!
