Vatican Manuscripts Added Week 26 of 2021

A total of thirty-five manuscripts were added this week. Fourteen more Vat.gr volumes brings that collection up to 309 digitized in full color. Work continues, though slowing, on the Gaetano Marini volumes, but the next block of Vat.lat, texts relating to Francesco Cancellieri, has been accelerating.

To the right is the stunning, early 9th century carved ivory plaque from Pal.lat.50, now conserved seperately as Legat.Pal.lat.50. This once covered a Bible written in the circle of the court of Charlemagne, at Lorsch.

The bottom border is from De.Marinis.3, f.4r. The collection of Tammaro de Marinis is poorly catalogued, but the identity of this work is drawn from Kristeller's Iter Italicum. He based it on a catalogue drawn up by De Marinis himself in 1960.
