Lesen in Bild und Text - Die ehem. Berliner Bilderhandschrift von Priester Wernhers ,Maria´

Bildercodex D is among the earliest illuminated manuscripts in the German language and illustrates the late effects of the Regensburg-Prüfening drawing style. This volume examines the experimental techniques recognizable in this work, which were integrated into pictures and text as well as the banners embedded in the miniatures, and it explores how they contribute to linking text and image.
