I know this is a longshot, but I was wondering if anyone knows of any online resources for 10-12th Century Art from Spain or the Iberian Peninsula. I'm looking for examples of basic style, color usage and lettering--even though this predates the European printing press.

If you know of any good sources that are close, maybe a little before or after, maybe French or Italian--though Muslim or Northern Africa would be great--I'll take any recommendations. This is still in the brainstorming stage, so just about any and all resources will serve a purpose. Thanks, gang.

Not specific at all, but I'm trying to look at some things from Medieval Spain so that I can try and replicate color schemes or lettering as best as I can a thousand years later. It's my own perfectionist streak that's driving this, rather than the client. I would prefer it to look at least somewhat authentic.

For further prodding, this is a pro bono job for a charity that works with developmentally disabled kids, i.e. cerebral palsy, spina bifida, neuromuscular disorders, post-traumatic brain injury, autism and cognitive disorders.

this is daunte culpepper. i'm sure you don't really mean "hail mary". but i CERTAINLY mean it when i apply it to my own career. Bad season? Severe injury? Want a new contract with more money? OF COURSE! So when you're looking for old iberian art, don't employ a cliche~ but look for new employment and a LOT more money instead.
