FRICK FINE ARTS LIBRARY

ART HISTORY: FACSIMILES OF ILLUMINATED MANUSCRIPTS

Library Guide Series, No. 7

“Qui scit ubi scientis sit, ille est proximus habenti.” -- Brunetiere*

Medieval painting often took the form of an illuminated manuscript because the Roman Catholic Church was the primary patron for such artwork. Significant manuscripts in codex form are sometimes reproduced in a type of art book called a facsimile. Medieval ecclesiastical illuminated manuscripts are most often the subjects of facsimiles, although they can also include bestiaries, herbals, travel guides and other secular books.

Recently produced facsimiles, published in limited editions, are so true to the originals that it is sometimes hard to identify them as copies at first glance. The rich leather bindings have been fashioned to mimic the originals as closely as possible, sometimes even to the point of including metal clasps and mounted imitation jewels. The pages are replicas of the originals, as clear and as close to the colors and lines used by the medieval illuminators and calligraphers as photographic reproductions can be. The worm holes and other damage to the pages of the original manuscripts are even reproduced in soime of the facsimiles.

It has only been within the last thirty years or so that modern book-making technology has been able to produce excellent facsimiles. They have been extremely useful to researchers of medieval studies because they make the unique, carefully guarded manuscripts, usually locked away in European libraries, museums, or cathedral treasuries, accessible to scholars throughout the world.

Criteria for the Use of Materials in the Frick Fine Arts Library

Unlike the general collections in other ULS libraries, the Frick Fine Arts Library is a special collection that requires that attention be paid to book handling. The following criteria for book handling greatly extends the life of materials in any special collection. Library patrons using special collections throughout the world (including those at Pitt like Special Collections in Hillman Library, the Darlington Library or the Elisabeth Nesbitt Room in the Information Sciences Library) are expected to learn careful book handling techniques and abide by criteria similar to that explained below. This policy has been approved by the Administration of the University Library System.

• Please leave beverage and food containers in the Cloister. • Please use our books with freshly washed hands. • Please only use pencils with our books. They are available at the Reading Room desk

and near all electronic devices. • Photocopying of rare books and facsimiles is not allowed; library users must take

notes (using a pencil) from or use a laptop computer with these materials.

Criteria for the Use of Rare Books • In addition to observing the criteria for the handling of materials in the Library’s

collection, patrons using materials shelved in our rare books cage are expected to follow these additional criteria:

• Items located in the Rare Books Cage require an advance appointment. • Materials kept in the cage may only be used in the Library’s Reading Room:

• If the item is barcoded, it must be used in the Reading Room but checked out to the patron on the Pitt ID or driver’s license. When finished with the item, it must be discharged from the Pitt ID card or the driver’s license must be returned.

• If the item is not barcoded, the green card in the back of the item must be legibly signed and left with a full-time staff member, along with the Pitt ID card or driver’s license. When finished with the item, the ID will be returned.

• Use gauze gloves (available in the library office) • Use a book support bag for each item. These bags may be checked out for two

hours (and renewed) at the Reserves desk in the Reading Room. • For class presentation within the Frick Fine Arts Building, please submit a Pitt

Cat printout for the item to the Head Librarian for her decision 3-5 days in advance of class. • In the absence of the Librarian, please see Marcia Rostek, Margaret

McGill, or Lisa Keenan in the Library Office. • These materials may be taken to a seminar or classroom only in this

building and at the discretion of the Head Librarian. • If permission is granted, it is the instructor’s responsibility to see that food

and drink are not allowed on the same table as the library materials. Navigating the ULS Digital Library www.library.pitt.edu

Instructions on doing this are provided on the ULS Home Page. Choose FIND ARTICLES. At the top of that page “Information on Connecting from Off-Campus” http://www.library.pitt.edu/services/remote.html No special software is required. If you have problems connecting with SSL VPN, please contact Pitt’s Technology Department help line at 412-624-HELP (4357) for assistance. NOTE: If you do not connect to SSL-VPN, you will not be able to access any databases to which the ULS subscribes from off campus! Part of the fees you pay to attend Pitt also pays for the databases, so you will want to put them to good use during your research projects.

Printing in ULS Libraries (10¢ per page). NOTE: Students can print up to approximately 900 pages for free when in campus computer labs. To print and photocopy in ULS libraries, though, you must use your Pitt ID card as a debit card. One can embed funds on the Pitt ID card in a machine on the ground floor of Hillman Library (near the photocopiers).

To print in ULS libraries: Note the name of the device (Baba, Fall, Gall, etc.) Touch screen print station is located in the Reference Room Insert Pitt ID card (loaded with funds), touch screen, touch the letter representing

the beginning of the device’s name (i.e., B for Baba, etc.) Touch each job line When you finish printing, remember to get your Vend-a-Card!

Downloading in ULS Libraries

You may download information from public devices by using either a floppy disk (available for $1.00 in ULS libraries) or a flash drive (also called thumb or pen drives).

subject heading or keyword. It is still not, however, easy to retrieve facsimiles of medieval mauscripts because this specialized field requires specialized cataloging.

Title Search Searching for a facsimile by title can be tricky because many of them are published in foreign languages. The manuscript known in English as “The Morgan Crusader Bible” is entered by title in Pitt Cat in the German language, Kreuzritter bible. A Boolean search using “Morgan Crusader Bible” would, however, pull up the title because the translation is included in a description of the manuscript. Selected title entries include: The Bible of St. Louis is entered by title in the Spanish language, Biblia de San Luis, the Metz Sacramentary is entered by its German title, Karolingisches Sakramentar, the Anglo-Catalan Psalter is entered by its Spanish language title Salterio Anglo-Catalan, the Ingeborg Psalter is entered by it’s French title, Psautier d’Ingeburge de Danemark, the Golden Gospes of Echternach are entered by the Latin title Codex Aureus and the Rossano Gospels are entered by the Latin title, Codex purpureus Rossanensis. A facsimile of the Lindifarne Gospels is also entered by the Latin title, Codex Lindisfarnensis.

Boolean Searching It is important to phrase a keyword search carefully. For example, executing the following search produces too many results and is not focused.

Manuscript? AND Facsimile? = 2,051 results Results include all kinds of manuscripts, including facsimiles of the original edition of Alice in Wonderland, a facsimile edition of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby and the music manuscript for L’Oiseau de feu by Stravinsky; books ABOUT facsimiles; catalogs of manuscripts, materials in all languages and holdings at all campus libraries. One would receive better results by limiting the search to the ULS location or limiting to a year span (1997-2007) to capture the most recent facimiles. One can also limit by subject or author of commentary volumes. The following keyword search, for example, produces 190 results. The ? is used as a truncation symbol to search for all words based on those roots.

Manuscript? AND Illumination AND facsimile? Likewise, the search below produces 11 results.

Facsimile? AND Acpocalyps?

In addition, the search below produces 23 results. Heures AND Berry

Original Manuscripts Firdausi (ca. 935-1020). Shah-Nama [Book of Kings]. Shiraz?: [s.n.], 1575-1600? 520 l. 29 miniatures, 4 decorated headpieces, 19th century full leather tooled binding. Frick – Cage – iND980/F52

This great literary work - - the Persian national epic -- was begun by Daqiqi of Tus (in what is now Mashad in Eastern Iran), a poet at the court of the Samanids until his death in 980 AD. It was later picked up by the poet Abu’l Qasim Mansure (or Firdausi, 940?-1020?) of the same town. Born into the dehqan (a small farmer class), The latter poet first visited people in his community, listened to their stories and then wrote them in verse form. At one point during the process, Firdausi gained an audience with the Turkish Sultan, Mahmud of Ghazni. The sultan, impressed with his work, named him “Firdausi” in reference to heaven and kept him at court to complete the work. Firdausi completed the epic in 1010 AD, thirty-five years later. The text begins with the creation of the world according to Persian mythology and ends with the conquest of Persia by Muslims in 630 and the death of Yezdgird III in 641, marking the end of Sassanid rule. The stories relate to battles between the Persians and Turanians (Turks) and are rich in the exploits of love and betrayal as well as courage and valor. Comparable in world literature to Homer’s Illiad in style, the Shahnama is one of the longest poems ever composed (c. 60,000 lines). It was customary for every king to have a personal illustrated copy of it that had been illustrated by the most prestigious artists of the time. No Persian text has been so lavishly illustrated. The images are of great art historical importance because they offer impressive documentation of early Persian culture, much of which has been lost. Furthermore, they document changes in taste and style, the selection and transmission of images across generations and schools of Persian painters, the changing role of the national epic in the imagination of Iranians and changing messages that the stories were made to convey over the centuries. The miniatures illustrating the Shahnama can be counted among the masterpieces of world art.

The Isabella Breviary. By Janet Blackhouse. London: British Library, 1993. Frick – ND3365/I7B33/1993

The Breviary of Queen Isabella of Castile is one of the most splendid of Flemish illuminated manuscripts, notable for the verve and originality of its miniatures. This is the first time it has been the subject of a substantial separate publication, providing comprehensive coverage of its contents and decoration. The manuscript was presented to Isabella by Francisco de Rojas, apparently to mark the occasion of the double marriage of her son and daughter to the children of Maximilian, King of the Romans, and his first wife, Mary of Burgundy. De Rojas had acted for Isabella and her husband, King Ferdinand of Aragon, throughout the marriage negotiations, which were concluded in 1495. Isabella had a strong interest in Flemish art and this sumptuous devotional book must have been much to her taste. Breviaries, normally produced for the use of the clergy, are much less common than books of hours. They contain a larger and more varied body of texts, affording their artists a wider range of subject matter and extensive decorative opportunities. In the case of the Isabella Breviary no effort was spared to produce an illustrative scheme on a grand scale. Two outstanding workshops of the day are represented. The greater part of the manuscript is due to the Master of the Dresden Prayerbook, whose contribution includes a number of unusual Old Testament subjects. Many of the illustrations of saints are by the Master of James IV of Scotland. In addition there are four magnificent miniatures closely related to (and possibly in the hand of) Gerard David.

The Saint Albans Psalter, made in the 1130s, is one of the great monuments of English Romanesque painting and has survived disasters and religious upheaval and war in pristine condition. The sequence of 40 full-page miniatures illustrating the Life of Christ establishes the artist, the so-called Alexis Master, as one of the most influential painters in early 12th century England. Probably created for the patron, Abbot Geoffrey of St. Albans and its recipient, the Anglo-Saxon hermitess Christiana of Markyate.
