Victor Antiochenus

950 · 1 picture

Victor Antiochenus is a medieval Latin manuscript of a Gospel harmony commentary, dated around 950 and held by a Swiss library, probably made for monastic readers. The single picture is a pen-and-ink drawing in brown ink with a pale wash, showing a haloed, crowned figure holding a small scroll or tablet with a hand raised, drawn in loose, sketchy lines a designer could borrow for hand-drawn medieval-style linework.
