This is a fascinating look at one of the world's
most important and renowned 12th-century manuscripts.
The St. Albans Psalter is one of the most important,
famous, and puzzling books produced in 12th-century
England. It was probably created between 1120 and 1140
at St. Albans Abbey. The manuscript's powerfully drawn
figures and saturated colours are distinct from those in
previous Anglo-Saxon painting and signal the arrival of
the Romanesque style of illumination in England.
Although most 12th-century prayer books were not
illustrated, the St. Albans Psalter includes more than
40 full-page illuminations and over 200 historiated
initials. Decorated with gold and precious colours, the
psalter offers a display unparalleled by any other
English manuscript to survive from the time. In 2012,
scholars conservators, and scientists at the J. Paul
Getty Musesum conducted a close examination of the
Psalter, gathering new evidence challenging several
prevailing assumptions about this richly illustrated
manuscript.
