St. Paul preaching to a group of followers
This miniature once marked the beginning of one of Paul's Epistles in the deluxe illustrated Bible from which it was taken. The Bible historiale was a popular French translation of biblical history, especially among royal and aristocratic patrons. This miniature is one of several cuttings in the Free Library from the same manuscript illuminated by an artist in the workshop of the Virgil Master, a prominent illuminator known for his work in a copy of Virgil's Aeneid and Bucolics now in the Biblioteca Laurenziana in Florence, Italy.
