4. Digital Illustrations Illustration Illustrator Adobe Program Vector-based images Pen Tool Shape Tool • The origins of illustration began with decorative manuscripts as early as the tenth century. Most of these works were painted in watercolor and commissioned by the church. After the invention of the printing press, publishers were able to include an illustration on the same plate as the text. From the sixteenth century on, the image and the text were printed separately, allowing for the illustration to stand alone. As technology progressed, engravings were put onto metal. Images of realistic portraits, geographical maps, and scientific images were popular during the nineteenth century. Some of these methods, such as dry point, etching, and aquatint, continue to be used today.   • Major movements in illustration include satirical illustrations of the eighteenth century, narrative illustration of the nineteenth century, humorous realism of the Victorian age, post-war mass communication trends, pop art and consumer culture movements, and finally the digital revolution of today.
