Vatican Manuscripts Added Week 7 of 2019

Only seven manuscripts added this week, see all the details on Macro Typography. One of the manuscripts, Vat.lat.4215 is another volume of Nicholas of Lyra's Postilla. This one is interesting in that we know the name of the illuminator Gioacchino di Giovanni and can see his signature green parrots in the manuscript, eg. f.1r to the right
