Manuscript Summary
This large-format Bible manuscript was produced in the fourteenth century in the Upper Rhine area and contains the totality of the Old and New Testaments, with Jerome’s prologues. The text is carefully copied in textualis and is richly decorated with pen-flourished initials, colorful decorative motifs, medallions, and marginal drawings of animals and humans. Particularly noteworthy are the figurative initials, grotesque marginal drawings, as well as numerous glosses and corrections from the fourteenth and fifteenth century.
