Medieval Love Poetry by John Cherry
Combines the two distinct but related themes of love and romance, this giftbook illustrates texts with the images of medieval romances. It also juxtaposes words of love alongside images of gold jewellery and other inscribed mementoes. The introduction explains the medieval fascination with the quest and its ideals of beauty and chivalry.
John Cherry recently retired as Keeper of the medieval collections in the British Museum. He is the author of Medieval Decorative Art and Goldsmiths (Medieval Craftsmen series) and editor of The British Museum Book of Mythical Beasts.
