The Lindisfarne Gospels is an illuminated manuscript in the Anglo-Celtic style of the four Gospels Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. The work was created in the early 8th century by Eadfrith, bishop of the Northumbrian monastic community on Lindisfarne or Holy Island. The Latin Vulgate is the base text, to which a later reviser added a parallel translation in Old English. The Lindisfarne Gospels is widely regarded as the most beautiful and intricately illuminated manuscript to have survived from Anglo-Saxon England. N° de réf. du vendeur 53186
