Early Medieval Bible Illumination and the Ashburnham Pentateuch Author: Dorothy Verkerk Date Published: June 2011 availability: In stock format: Paperback isbn: 9781107402003 Description Contents Resources Courses About the Authors This book focuses on the Ashburnham Pentateuch, an early medieval illuminated manuscript of the Old Testament whose pictures are among the earliest surviving and most extensive biblical illustrations. Dorothy Verkerk shows how the lively and complex illustrations of Genesis and Exodus, which incorporate references to contemporary life, were used to explain important church teachings. She provides a key to understanding the relationship between the text and pictures. Verkerk also argues that the manuscript was created in Italy, thereby solving a mystery that has baffled scholars for the last century and demonstrating that early medieval Italian artists were capable of complex innovations in the field of the visual arts Language : englsih text Size: 229 x153 mm.
