Description:
|
Manuscript of 'Petrus Lombardus Super Palmos'. The upper cover is plated with gilt metal, apparently of 13th century. The border is composed of six oblong plates of enamel (at the corners and in the middle of the sides) bearing decorative designs: intervals between these are occupied by six longer strips of filigree work, each of which is set with four stones. The central plate of gilt metal has an incised design of foliage partially surrounding a crucifix. The figure on the cross is set in relief, crowned, with loin cloth, and is fastened by four nails. The text is written in double columns of 48 lines to a page. Written in the 12th century, in two clear hands.
