This book shows how, after iconoclasm in Dutch Calvinist churches, text decoration evolved into an innovative form of visual culture, and was used to transform church spaces to accommodate Reformed worship. Beyond evident and major changes a story of continuity unfolds, witnessed by the pre-Reformation roots of designs and spatial arrangements of texts displayed in churches.
