We select the graphic elements (borders, headers, capital letters, ribbons, laces, etc.) in pages of those ancient masterpieces and individually redraw them by hand in EPS vector graphic format using Wacom graphic tablets in applications like Adobe Illustrator, Macromedia Freehand and Corel Draw. Our graphic objects can be used by graphic designers, web masters, librarians, teachers, students and anyone who appreciates the fine arts of our ancestors. No particular skills or complicated graphic software is needed to give a different personality to documents, letters, invitation, cards, banners, brochures, posters, etc.
Every CD includes EPS, WMF, TIFF and GIF file formats and a catalog for viewing and selecting the images.

I have found this poem in an Italian web site, it has nothing to do with our work, but I love it, I love the graphic power of those words that border the surreal. I wish I was able to translate it in English.

ARIDI DESERTI
(agnusmax.it)
Aridi deserti, scabrose rocce corrose dal tempo, sconfinati oceani dissolti in orribili abissi, laghi argentati, linfe vitali di vulcani spenti. Monti severi ed oscuri celano pericolosi anfratti. Non v'è luogo che la vita non colga. Non v'è luogo che la morte non colga. Non v'è cuore, che l'amore non colga, ma, per ogni grido di gioia, mille e più mille grida di puro dolore.
