Description: | Florus, deacon of Lyons (d. 860), was one of many early medieval authors to write commentaries on biblical books. In this manuscript the sources from which he draws his comments are marked in the margins. The decoration and script page are typical of manuscripts produced at Rochester c.1110-1130.
This page shows the regular three-colour alternation of initials (purple, red, green); the 'S'- or '7'-like marginal marks which indicate quotations from the biblical text; drypoint ruling; prickings in upper and lower margins. | 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 |
