Notes:: Housed in a matted frame (325 x 750 mm), Three, 2-line red initials; remains of an incipit in ornamental red letters. Rubric in red on the recto., Twelfth-century Italian portion of the opening folio from a monumental Atlantic Bible in Latin.

Folio is from a monumental Atlantic Bible, a production type originating in Rome and widespread throughout Europe in the eleventh and twelfth centuries. These texts were oversized as "Atlantic" refers to the giant Atlas, and they probably had use as liturgical visual aids (De amel, Chrostpher. "Giant Bibles of the Early Middle Ages."

Notes:: Very thin parchment., Two, 2-line blue-and-red pen-flourished initials; flourishing extends up and down the margins., Thirteenth-century, French leaf from a Parisian pocket bible including a portion of the Latin Vulgate: Deuteronomy 7:8-9:15.
