One of the finest of all medieval apocalypse manuscripts, the Douce Apocalypse was part of a series of illuminated texts that brought St. Johns apocalyptic visions to life.Now the manuscriptcreated sometime between 1250 and 1275reaches an entirely new audience at the hands of noted scholar Nigel Morgan. The Douce Apocalypse explores the manuscripts royal patronage, looks at its fascinating imagery, and examines its significance in light of contemporary prophecy. The commentary is accompanied by lush, fullcolor illustrations.As Morgan relates, the Douce Apocalypse is especially enlightening because of its unfinished nature. A few of its images remain incompleteand such absences give insight into the artists painstaking techniques of drawing, gilding, and painting. The second volume in the Treasures from the Bodleian Library series, The Douce Apocalypse will convey both the beauty of the original and the enduring fascination of its contents.
