Golden Legend page

Dates: |

|
|
Contents: |
The collection consists of a genuine page from a book called Der Heiligen Leben Passional, or The Golden Legend, by Jacobus
de Voragine, printed by Koberger in Nuremberg in 1488. These illustrations are as a rule anonymous, the names of the engravers
being known only after the year 1500. The blocks of pear wood, on which these designs were cut, were "type high" and set into
the same form with the text and both were inked and printed together. The coloring was done by hand, the style being developed
on the model of the illuminations used as illustrations to the still earlier manuscripts.

Armenian Bible Leaf
|
Requires cookie* |
|
Creator: |
Unknown |
|
|
Dates: |
1100-1199 |
|
|
Contents: |
This collection is comprised of one leaf of an Armenian Bible, stated to be from the early 12th Century.
Dealer's note: The text of this leaf is from a 5th century translation of the Bible by the Armenian prelate Maschdots Mesrob
(circa 354-441) and is in the Haikian alphabet of 38 characters. Of special interest here is the paper, claimed (in an accompanying
note) to have been manufactured in the Near East early in the 12th century, more than 150 years before Fabriano began making
paper in Italy. While it is conceivable that the dating here is correct, the presence of a watermark (a feature not in common
use at that time) suggests that the paper might have ben made later. The watermark, however, is not in Briquet.
