# Salaberga Psalter [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [MINIATURIST, French]() - Date: 0751-0800 - Technique: Manuscript \(Ms. Hamilton 553\) ## Commentary This manuscript derives its name from its association with the monastery of Saint-Jean de Laon, founded by Salaberga \(died 665\), who was its first abbess. There is no evidence, however, that the manuscript originated there, and the textual evidence of the psalms suggests rather an association with the so-called 'Anglo-Saxon' family of manuscripts. The Psalter is an example of the Irish codex style. The picture shows the decorated title page. ## Related artworks - [A History of Western Saints]() - [Antiphoner]() - [Aristotle: De Interpretazione]() - [Aristotle: Works]() - [Augustinus Hipponensis: Quaestiones et locutiones in Heptateuchum]() - [Augustinus Hipponensis: Quaestiones et locutiones in Heptateuchum]() - [Augustinus Hipponensis: Quaestiones et locutiones in Heptateuchum]() - [Beatus of Liébana: Commentary on the Apocalypse]() - [Belleville Breviary]() - [Bible Historiale]() - [Bible moralisée, part I.]() - [Bible moralisée, part I.]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
