Composite manuscript (theology)

1450 · 1 picture

A composite theological manuscript from about 1450, likely made in a German-speaking region of Europe for clerical or monastic readers, now held by a Swiss library and digitised through e-codices. The single picture is a painted miniature of two robed figures in green and white lifting a golden crown over a blue field patterned with a red star and round red bosses, with musical notation below. A designer might take the saturated blue, gold and red palette and the flat, stylised medieval pattern work.
