medieval gothic 1200 illuminated manuscript miniature painting vellum 13th
17 chapter initials in burnished gold or blue accompanied by alternating blue or red penwork. Penworks within the lay-out. Various fine decorative line-fillers in gold, red and blue, including dog, a dragon and a armed mermaid, refined linear line-fillers. Since the end of the 1960s several folia from a Psalter. Formerly in the collection of the late Astor Rosenbaum have surfaced. The present page undoubtedly belonged to this important 13th century Psalter. Of which illuminated pages were sold a.o. for auction at Sotheby's, London(25 April 1983, lot 69, sold to Quaritch) also lot 14, Dec. 1991, lot 6 in Dec.1992, another was offered for sale at Maggs( cat. 1340, No. 4) Three other leaves were present in the exhibition on private prayerbooks in Cologne. Schnüttgen Museum, 1987, No. 8. In a recent sale in London another leaf, fol. ... more193, was sold at Sotheby's, 2003, lot. 13. The origin of the Psalter is here convincingly ascribed to England. Rather than to Flanders, due to the inclusion of a scene from the life of St. Thomas Becket on one of the leaves sold at auction in 1991, the greater similarity with line-fillers found in two Psalters from Worcester(in Cambridge and Krivoklït Castle) the"Salvin Hours" London, British Lib. and the Windmill Psalter(New York, Pierpont Morgan Lib. further enhances an English origin. Provenance: ex-Rosenbaum Collection; Germany. Private Collection(see J. Plotzek, Andachtsbucher aus Privatbesitz, 1987. This miniature is NOT a reproduction but genuine.

BOOK OF ISAIAH/ BIBLE 13th century MEDIEVAL MANUSCRIPT Vellum ILLUMINATED Paris
This item is being relisted due to non-payment. Holy Bible- Latin- Vulgate Version- Old Testament- Book of Isaiah] Roman Catholic Church] Illuminated Manuscripts- Medieval- 13th century- Paris- Gautier Lebaube atelier] Written and illuminated in Northern France. Doubtless Paris, 2nd quarter of 13th Century(most likely ca. 1240) Embellished with four superb illuminated initials, some on burnished gold background. The splendid illumination was probably produced by the famous Gautier Lebaube atelier. The manuscript we are offering comprises 27 consecutive leaves. I.e. 54 pages from a finely illuminated 13th-century'pocket format' Vulgate Latin Bible, containing the ENTIRE TEXT OF THE BOOK OF ISAIAH. INCLUDING ST JEROME'S IMPORTANT PROLOGUE( Nemo cum prophetas versibus viderit. Also included is the complete text of St Jerome's ... morePrologue to the Book of Jeremiah. And the final 51st chapter of Ecclesiasticus(Wisdom of Sirach) The Book of Isaiah is the first of the Latter Prophets in the Hebrew Bible and the first of the Major Prophets in Latin and English bibles. Isaiah identifies itself as the words of the 8th century BC prophet Isaiah ben Amoz. But there is ample evidence that much of it was composed during the Babylonian exile and later. The scholarly consensus(which held sway through most of the 20th century) saw three separate collections of oracles: Proto-Isaiah(chapters 1-39) Containing the words of Isaiah; Deutero-Isaiah(chapters 40-55) the work of an anonymous 6th-century BC author writing during the Exile; and Trito-Isaiah(chapters 56-66) composed after the return from exile. A great deal of current research concentrates on the book's essential unity, with Isaiah 1-33 projecting judgement and restoration for Judah, Jerusalem and the nations, and chapters 34-66 presupposing that judgement has already taken place and restoration is at hand. The overarching narrative of Isaiah can be viewed as" a continued meditation upon the destiny of Jerusalem" Walter Brueggemann) A central th

This is in"fair" condition- there's a few tears at the edges in a couple places, and a little damage along the top edge etc as you can see, but overall the piece is intact, strong, and beautiful, especially considering it is very, very old, I am told it dates to the 1500s or 1600s and I was told this is a page from a book from an ancient European church, possibly an Antiphonal or possibly a Gregorian Chant. Long ago they used to cut up these hymnal type books and sell off the individual vellum pages like this because of their inherent handmade beauty. I recently acquired a few of these from a local high-end estate. Guaranteed old ... moreand authentic vellum sheet with handmade antique drawing/writing.

The edges are a little rough, see pictures, but the main piece is solid and strong, lays flattish(NOT ROLLED! but it is a bit wavy, and will be shipped flat like this so it will be ready for framing when you get it without having annoying rolling.

Beautiful Genuine Medieval French Illuminated Bible Manuscript Page
This is a page from a Bible manuscript. Hand copied and illustrated with painted initials in Northeastern France in the mid-to-late 1200's. The text is the epistle of James, or Iacobi in the Latin at the top of this leaf. The language of the text is Latin, as it was for virtually all Christian scriptural texts in this period. The large figurative initial extending the whole length of the page marks the beginning of the book; note the colored chapter number I in the left margin, and II in the right margin with a smaller painted initial. Two initials-the large one and another on the other side of the leaf-are illuminated: that is, they include touches of burnished gold as well as painted areas. Although some now use the phrase"illuminated manuscript" to describe any hand-written text with painted illustration, true illumination, ... moreor"lighting up" with gold, is a feature of luxurious manuscripts. There are other signs that this detached page was part of a high quality book: the vellum, or leather that supports the text is very thin and refined-as thin as a modern piece of fine notepaper, and semi-translucent. Dimensions are: height: 11.5" width: 7.5" The photos look a bit out of square because I do not have a tripod, and it is difficult to center the camera over the piece and hold it exactly level. Width at top and bottom differs by less than an eighth of an inch. The ink used to write the text has faded slightly to a mid-value brown. But the paint retains jewel-like blues and reds along with paler colors. Manuscript books, unlike paintings on panels or walls, spend most of their lives closed, protecting their painted decorations and illustrations from fading through exposure to light. The book of which this leaf was a part, probably remained intact until the late nineteenth or even well into the twentieth century. Perhaps the most interesting aspect of this piece is the presence of several guides to the scribes. Painters, and illuminators. I have tried to show the faintly visible rul

Developed by scribes in the thirteenth century especially to copy the famous'Parisian pocket Bibles' Although it was intended to be a luxurious high-level script, and thus one might expect to call it Textualis Formata. Its letter forms, because they are so small, are simplified, often irregular(incorporating, for example, several shapes of a) and have few gothic refinements.

Illuminated Vellum Leaf from an Italian Medieval Manuscript Book of Hours c.1460
This is a single vellum leaf from a tiny(93mm x 62mm) late medieval book of hours penned in Italy approximately 1460. This page has 13 lines of text per side of abbreviated medieval Latin in a fine rounded Gothic hand that would seem to imply an origin in the Bolognia region. It is ever so lighly ruled with a plummett(early pencil/lead stick) it has a single burnished gold two line letter"L" and 10 single line initials in alternating blue and red. In the third photo you can see that the"L" is pristine and unrubbed. When you mouse over the red and blue initials you can see in the closeup the guide letters that the scribe wrote so the illuminator would know what letter to paint in. Particularly the 3rd. 4th, and 5th initials on the side with the"L" The leaf itself is overall very clean and un-thumbed. Because of ... moreit's small size it was probably made for a woman; it's owners have used it very gently over the centuries. The text is from the 3rd Canonical hour of Terce; Joy of the Pilgrim Entering Jerusalem" it is Psalm 121 in the Vulgate Bible or 122 in the King James Version. Starting with the gold"L" it follows: Laetatus sum in his quae dicta sunt mihi: In domum Domini ibimus. Stantes erant pedes nostri. In atriis tuis, Jerusalem. Jerusalem, quae aedificatur ut civitas: cujus participatio ejus in idipsum. Illuc enim ascenderunt tribus, tribus Domini: testimonium Israël, ad confitendum nomini Domini. Quia illic sederunt sedes in judicio, sedes super domum David. Rogate quae ad pacem sunt Jerusalem(Notice that Jerusalem is spelled in an"H" hierusalem) The English translation of this passage from the Douay-Rheims Bible is: I rejoiced at the things that were said to me: We shall go into the house of the Lord. Our feet were standing in thy courts. O Jerusalem. Jerusalem, which is built as a city, which is compact together.
