Product Details

The Lindisfarne Gospels is one of Britain's greatest artistic and religious treasures. Written and illuminated in honor of God and St Cuthbert circa 715-20, the Gospels are famous for the superb quality and intricate design of its decorated pages. A single artist-scribe, Eadfrith, later Bishop of Lindisfarne, was responsible for both script and decoration throughout these Gospels. The volume is painted in a large and subtle range of pigments made from a selection of local plants and minerals - the work of someone attuned to the environment. Each of the four Gospels (St Matthew, St Mark, St Luke and St John) opens with a miniature of the appropriate Evangelist and an elaborate decorative "carpet" page based on the form of a cross.
