Old Testament Miniatures, The Pierpont Morgan Library & George Braziller, Inc., NY Parisian artists around 1250, live through their work - the beautifully drawn, vigorous figures and skillful expression of human emotion and conquest, illustrats in detail, costume, armour and background detail of the period. 96 coloured plates along with textual descriptions accompanying each plate provides probably the best representation of the period available today.
Credit: AEMMA wishes to thank Mr. Bartlomiej Walczak, c/o Brotherhood of the Eagle's Nests of Cracow, Poland for his effort of digitizing the book and his gracious donation of the digitized book for presentation in this online library.
Note: Given the images from the Maciejowski Bible were sourced from the Pierpont Morgan Library and to date, no permissions to release the material to the general public, we have located a URL in the Netherlands that has a portion of the material online along with an English description of the plates.
