My first impression was, WOW! Am I really supposed to be able to read this? After that I was surprised at the use of color throughout the pages. The first color that stood out was gold, but as I turned the pages I noticed the use of reds and blues. Contrast was evident by the use of the color. Also blocks of color were used to surround the letter that began a new section. Repetition was demonstrated though the use of the same text style throughout the document. Alignment was evident by the margins that centered the text on the pages. Proximity was utilized though the pages by keeping the information together that belonged together. I feel the most prominent principle was contrast. The color blocked letters proved that this was not an ordinary text. Add that with the use of the gold inlay, and one quickly realizes that this is a work of royalty.
