Description: | Although the script, decoration, and liturgical features all show that this little Psalter was made in Flanders in the mid 13th century, two inscriptions state that it belonged in the abbot's room at the Cistercian abbey at Pipewell, a few miles north of Kettering in Northamptonshire, in the 15th century.
On the left-hand page is the inscription 'De camera abbatis Pippewell', and facing it is the calendar page for January, with the occupation of the month: a man drinking and keeping his feet warm by a fire. | 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 |
