The Art of The Saint John’s Bible

The Art of The Saint John’s Bible

Presented by River Falls Public Library at River Falls Public Library Gallery

The Saint John’s Bible incorporates many of the characteristics of its medieval predecessors: it was written on vellum using quills, natural handmade inks, hand ground pigments and gild such as gold leaf, silver leaf and platinum. It employs the modern, English translation of the New Revised Standard Version Bible as well as contemporary scripts and illuminations. The prints displayed showcase a small sampling of the approximately 160 illuminations in the completed work. On loan from Saint John’s Abbey and University in Collegeville, Minnesota.
