A BIFOLIUM WITH FOUR HISTORIATED AND ONE ILLUMINATED INITIAL BY THE ALMAGEST ATELIER
A BIFOLIUM WITH FOUR HISTORIATED AND ONE ILLUMINATED INITIAL BY THE ALMAGEST ATELIER The text running from 1 John II: ‘[...] et Filium. Omnis qui negat [...]’ to Revelation III: ‘Scio opera tua, quia nomen habes quod vivas.’ The subjects of three of the historiated initials are not immediately identifiable: the figures in the initials opening 2 John and 3 John could well be the Apostle John, while the initial opening Jude could be Judas brother of James and half-brother of Jesus. The initial opening the Book of Revelation shows an angel with a scroll above the Seven Churches of the Apocalypse (a reference to Jesus’ instruction to John on Patmos that he describe his vision in writing to the Seven Churches of Asia: Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamos, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia, and Laodicea).
