Manuscript Reflection

The manuscript I reviewed was the Bible from Ethiopia. What I found the most interesting was that all elements of graphic design were noticeable within the manuscript. There is contrast among the text through the use of color. Even though I cant read the language, the contrast in color within text seems to be used for titles and important wording within the text. Repetition exists throughout the entire manuscript through the use of similar symbols and artwork. The main use of alignment seems to be centering into the middle of the page regardless of what is on the page. There also seems to be a consistent boarder throughout the pages. Similar content is also provided in close proximity.
