Although the Christian Spaniard concerned themselves very little with the culture of the Moors, stylistic influences did nevertheless seep through. The influence of Moorish models can be seen in the pages full of rich colour and contrast, and in the basic colours of a golden yellow, a deep and glowing red and an earthy dark brown. The illustration on folio 131v depicts the Woman of the Apocalypse. ## Related artworks - [Alba Bible]() - [Alfonso the Wise: Cantigas de Santa Maria]() - [Alfonso the Wise: Cantigas de Santa Maria]() - [Antiphoner]() - [Astrological Treatise]() - [Beatus of Liébana: Commentary on the Apocalypse]() - [Beatus of Liébana: Commentary on the Apocalypse]() - [Beatus of Liébana: Commentary on the Apocalypse]() - [Beatus of Liébana: Commentary on the Apocalypse]() - [Beatus of Liébana: Commentary on the Apocalypse]() - [Beatus of Liébana: Commentary on the Apocalypse]() - [Beatus of Liébana: Commentary on the Revelation of St. John]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
