About the book

The Holkham Bible Picture Book is an early fourteenth-century English manuscript that tells biblical history primarily through images. Its lively illustrations depict scenes from Creation, the life of Christ and other scriptural episodes in settings filled with details drawn from medieval English life. The manuscript is valued both as devotional art and as an unusually vivid visual source for clothing, architecture, work and everyday culture in the Middle Ages.
