The paper focuses on the classification of the types of the Gothic illuminated initials in the manuscripts from 1250s to 16th century. The theme is studied in the context of the (Pre)Romanesque starting points and parallels in the Italian 15th century Renaissance illumination. The study also concretizes relations among Parisian workshops active in the 13th century, Italy and Central Europe, mainly in the 13th and 14th centuries as well as it indicates the importance of the scriptoria active in Bohemia under the Luxembourg dynasty for the evolution of the initials types in the Central Europe in the period before and after the Hussite wars, from the point of view of the relation of the centre to the production of the subordinate countries of the Bohemian Crown and to adjoining countries.
