Illuminating Sanctity - The Body, Soul and Glorification of Saint Amand in the Miniature Cycle in Valenciennes, Bibliothèque Municipale, MS 500

In Illuminating Sanctity, Maria R. Grasso analyses the twelfth-century vita of Saint Amand. Her discovery and analysis of another set of preliminary drawings related to the miniature cycle demonstrates that a key alteration was made, isolating an important devotional image.
