Utrecht Psalter - Utrecht Psalter
This illustrated manuscript is thought to have been produced around 820-830 in Hautvillers, near Reims, France. It is one of the so-called "Rheims" manuscripts, and is currently housed at the Utrecht University Library. In addition to the Psalms from the Old Testament, it contains the Canticum (songs other than the Psalms in the Bible), the Apostles' Creed, and more. The abundant illustrations are quill pen drawings that faithfully illustrate the text word for word. Its depictions of ancient-style naturalistic landscapes and dynamic figures, full of tension and speed, make it one of the masterpieces of Carolingian art.
