Getty Museum film on Limbourg Brothers

The Getty Museum has a wonderful short film entitled "The Hidden Masters of the Middle Ages: the Limbourg Brothers"

They were painters of many famous illuminated manuscripts -- they did the first snowy landscape and perspective in these illumination.  They were masters of painting during medieval times.

Also at the Getty is a very short (under 3 minutes) film called "The Structure of a Medieval Manuscript"
