This wonderful manuscript was illuminated by the Franciscan Master; its five full-page miniatures on burnished gold backgrounds depict saints and Biblical scenes. This Psalter (1255-60), colourful and lively, was likely used by Franciscan friars who would often act as religious instructors for pious women.
