AT (Bücher Esra, Nehemia, Tobias, Judith, Esther, Hiob, Psalter, Parabole, Ecclesiastes, Cantica, Sapientia, Ecclesiasticu)
A German-language manuscript Bible of 1441 from the Heidelberg University Library, copied for devotional and scholarly reading of the Old Testament books listed in its title. The pages pair red-lettered text with historiated initials and painted foliage borders in a late medieval manuscript style. A designer could draw on the lush, slightly naive floral scrollwork, the warm red and green palette, and the framing of small figures inside ornamental capitals.
