Sobre este artículo
Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, first edition, 1989. Cloth, folio,. xiii,75 pp, 719 ills including 23 colour plates. From the blurb: "In the tradition established by Otto Pacht and J.J.G. Alexander with their catalogues of illuminated manuscripts in the Bodleian Library, Oxford, the present publication presents all the vital information on the miniatures, marginalia and other decorations in the manuscripts of one collection. Thanks to the homogeneous nature of the collection concerned, the Utrecht University Library, this volume also serves as a much-needed study of manuscript illumination in the Northern Netherlands. Of 181 manuscripts here dealt with, 132 are from the area. Approximately half of these are from Utrecht, the most important centre of book production in the region during the late Middle Ages. A uniquely valuable feature of this publication is the large number of illustrations, most in actual size. All miniatures with identifiable subjects are illustrated, along with a choice of the minor decorations. The extensive entries are supplemented with eight indexes. Special emphasis is laid on iconography, which is indexed both by subject matter and Iconclass number. Near Fine in dustwrapper.
