• Leaves of Gold Gallery: Bibles
  Hidden in the collections of Philadelphia libraries is an unexpected treasure -- a rich trove of more than 7,000 medieval and Renaissance miniature paintings showing religious scenes, classical tales, historical events, and medieval romances. Many have never been on public display, or even studied by scholars. The Philadelphia Area Consortium of Special Collections Libraries, in collaboration with the Philadelphia Museum of Art and other exhibition partners, surveyed the holdings in area libraries and museums. More than 80 of the choicest objects were exhibited at the Philadelphia Museum of Art March 10 - May 13, 2001 and at the Frist Gallery for the Visual Arts (Nashville TN) from September 27, 2001 - January 6, 2002.

• Showcases :: Luttrell Psalter
  The manuscript is named by modern scholars after its original patron. The largest picture in the manuscript depicts a knight on horseback attended by two women, immediately below the words ‘Lord Geoffrey Luttrell had me made’ in Latin (‘Dominus Galfridus Louterell me fieri fecit’). The two women in the picture can be identified by their coats of arms as Geoffrey Luttrell’s wife, Agnes de Sutton, who hands him his helm and lance, and his daughter-in-law, Beatrice le Scrope, who carries his shield. Geoffrey Luttrell was lord of the manor at Irnham, between Grantham and Spalding in Lincolnshire, but he owned estates across England, thanks to his great-great-grandfather, also called Geoffrey. His ancestor’s loyal support and service to King John ha
  Commissioned by a wealthy landowner in the first half of the 14th century, the Luttrell Psalter is one of England's most famous psalters. The vitality of its decoration is unsurpassed by other manuscripts of its day.

• Showcases :: Queen Melisende's Psalter
  Melisende (1105 – c.1160) and her husband Fulk V of Anjou became joint rulers of the Crusader Kingdom of Jerusalem in 1131. However within a year she and her husband were at war – which Melisende and her supporters won. Thereafter she became a great patron of the arts, founding an abbey at Bethany and commissioning this magnificent psalter.
  This richly decorated psalter, bound in ivory carved with scenes from the life of David, was made for Queen Melisende in the scriptorium of the Holy Sepulchre.

• Showcases :: The Duke of Sussex’s German Pentateuch
  The Duke of Sussex’s German Pentateuch was written and illuminated by a scribe-artist known as Hayyim, working in southern Germany around 1300. Apart from the five books of the Old Testament, it contains the Aramaic translation - Targum Onkelos - the Five Scrolls, Haftarot and readings from the Prophets. The manuscript takes its name from its last owner, the Duke of Sussex (1773-1843), before it became part of the British Museum collection in 1844.
