screenfolds (manuscript books) (codices (bound manuscripts), manuscripts (documents), ... Visual and Verbal Communication (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: Manuscripts distinguished by having a support formed of a long strip created by feathering together individual deer hides or pieces of maguey (agave) or bark (amate) paper to form a smooth continuous surface and coated with a white gesso. The strip is folded back and forth to create individual pages on which the figures and symbols are painted. In prime examples, made by Pre-Columbian American cultures |
