# Luttrell Psalter [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [MINIATURIST, English]() - Date: 1301-1350 - Technique: Manuscript \(Add. MS 42130\), 350 x 245 mm ## Commentary Luttrell Psalter 1325-40 Manuscript \(Add. MS 42130\), 350 x 245 mm British Library, London The Luttrell Psalter, an English 14th-century parchment codex, contains a Psalter with calendar and some additional material. Its 309 folios are richly decorated. Surprisingly, we can encounter a vast amount of bizarre, grotesque and often apparently subversive imagery at the margins of devotional manuscripts, the capitals of churches and cloisters and the undersides of choir stalls. The present image shows folio 184r of the Luttrell Psalter. On the margin, a dragon on wheels and a two-headed gryllus \(field cricket\), apparently on stilts, are depicted. ## Related artworks - [Acts of the Abbots]() - [Alphonso Psalter]() - [Amesbury Psalter]() - [Anatomical figure]() - [Angels Turning the Spheres of the Universe]() - [Apocalypse]() - [Barberini Gospels]() - [Barberini Gospels]() - [Beda Venerabilis: The Life of St Cuthbert]() - [Benedictional of Archbishop Robert]() - [Bestiary and Lapidary \('the Rochester Bestiary'\)]() - [Bestiary and Lapidary \('the Rochester Bestiary'\)]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
