Illumination was especially prevalent in Medieval art but declined after the 15th Century. Egyptian papyrus rolls including \"The Book of the Dead\" are the oldest discovered Illuminations and continued through the Greek,<br> Roman and Byzantine civilizations and also into the Middle East. In Medieval Europe,<br> Catholic monks did most of the manuscript illumination.
