Summary
" One of the most distinctive and colorful forms of early Pennsylvania art was manuscript illumination or, as it's commonly called today, fraktur-schriften. Although this genre of folk art was a derivative of European prototypes, those produced in Pennsylvania by the German settlers during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries showed an intensity not normally found in their European counterparts."
