Description
St. Jerome translation of the Bible; Some stains.; Verses are shown in the simple style with red and blue ink typically associated with Bibles. There are also two decorated initials with complex swirls in red and blue.; Angular Gothic Script; Ege notes that it is difficult to tell the difference between Bibles of the Dominican Friars from England and those from France (i.e. Ege 9). This one, though of high quality, took slightly less time than Ege 9, the script is larger (though still remarkably small) and the vellum is not of the same quality.; Brown, red, and blue inks
