# Gospel Book [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [MINIATURIST, Italian]() - Date: 1151-1200 - Technique: Manuscript \(Acq. E Doni 91\) ## Commentary Gospel Book 1160s Manuscript \(Acq. E Doni 91\) Biblioteca Medicea Laurenziana, Florence This manuscript, written in the 1160s in Pisa, contains illuminations executed in a style typical of the school of Reichenau at the beginning of the 11th century. The possible explanation is that the miniaturist \(Italian or perhaps German\) had seen a Reichenau school prototype which he used as a model. The Gospels are interspersed with full-page initials, portraits of the Evangelists and a painting of the Ascension. Folio 30v contains the portrait of Matthew. ## Related artworks - [Alessandro Cortesi: Poem]() - [Antiphonary]() - [Antiphonary]() - [Antiphonary]() - [Antiphoner]() - [Antiphoner]() - [Aristotle: Nicomachean Ethics]() - [Aristotle: Nicomachean Ethics]() - [Armiranda]() - [Aulus Gellius: Noctes Atticae]() - [Averulino: On the Architecture]() - [Baldo Martorelli: Grammar]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
