1350 · 2 pictures

A illuminated Latin Bible manuscript of about 1350, a copy from the e-codices collection of Swiss manuscripts, made for devotional and scriptural reading. Its pages show roundels of Genesis scenes framed by pale red and blue tendril borders on vellum, a clear model for arranging small narrative vignettes in a grid with ornamental frames.
