The manuscript includes a list of the abbots of the abbey. This miniature shows Abbot Robert (1151-1166), standing next to some of the gifts mentioned in the text: buildings, an image of the Virgin and Child, and a censer. | License: | http://www.bl.uk/services/copy/permission.html | Rights holder: | British Library | Source: | Collect Britain | Identifier: | http://www.collectbritain.co.uk/personal... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
