Mission statement

Quaternio Verlag Luzern:
Founded in July 2009, already a piece of history and a long-time future ahead …

For over 30 years now, the name of Lucerne has been connected to the production of fine art facsimiles, both among experts in this area and among collectors alike. In order to continue this tradition of excellent quality facsimile making of medieval painted manuscripts in Lucerne, four proven specialists in this field have founded the independent publishing house Quaternio Verlag Luzern. Our long-standing know-how in this exclusive field of book art guarantees:

an ambitious publishing program that compiles the artistically most interesting illuminated manuscripts from the Middle Ages
true-to-the-original facsimiles to meet the highest standards in terms of faithful reproduction, careful workmanship, and material selection
academically sound commentary volumes, also comprehensible for a non-academic audience
affordable fine art facsimile editions in a limited number of copies
high quality service and individual customer care
highest flexibility regarding customers’ wishes
