Vita beatae Hedwigis
This is a hand-painted medieval manuscript, the Life of Saint Hedwig, made around 1353 and held by the J. Paul Getty Museum; it was made for devotional reading. The pages show small framed scenes of saintly figures in ornate gowns, haloed women, and crowded groups, drawn in ink with flat watercolour washes and red rubric captions above and below, offering a designer clear models for medieval narrative panels, halos, and simple layered colour.
