Gospel Book with Evangelist Portraits: Decorated Initial, c. 1480. Creator: Hausbuch Master
Gospel Book with Evangelist Portraits: Decorated Initial, c. 1480. The four gospels are preceded by a full-page portrait miniature of the appropriate evangelist. Per tradition, they are represented as contemporary scribes surrounded by all the tools of their trade-- ink pots, quill pens, and penknives. The anonymous illuminator of these miniatures, called the Hausbuch Master, is known primarily for an album of lively drawings as well as some 90 copper engravings now in Amsterdam. He was also apparently a panel painter of some distinction. The skillful pen work, tracery, and vine scrolls, as well as the large initials, are the work of other artists.The binding is original
