Ruth with Sheaves
Vienna Moralized Bible Workshop - The Leber Group
Gold Leaf, Ink, and Tempera on Vellum
Paris, c. 1230
 A
single leaf from a Bible, written in a minute gothic hand in black ink
with versal initials touched in red. The ornament, figure style, and
details of the historiated initial are closest to a number of manuscripts
that Robert Branner has grouped around "Leber 6," a Psalter
(Rouen, Bibliothèque Municipale). The historiated initial "I"
opens the Book of Ruth, "In diebus unius…" (In the days
of one of the judges….) The text includes Judges 20:35-Ruth 1:14.
Size: 147 x 105 mm. (Matted 10 x 8 in.)
