Description
Caption: "A leaf from a Bible in Latin on vellum. Minute early gothic script in brown ink, ruled in gray, written in two columns of 56 lines. Roman numerals indicate the chapters, while small marks in the left margin sub-divide the text. Alternating chapter initials of red and blue inks with marginal flourishes. This leaf is from the Old Testament, which was often studied as a prefiguration of the New Testament." The leaf possibly originated in Bologna.
