Emotions in History - Lost and Found

Viac o knihe

The book explores a remarkable medieval manuscript, the Hungarian Angevin Legendary, which contains fifty-eight legends illustrated with lavish miniatures and gilding. Despite its fragmented history, with pages lost or altered, the codex serves as a unique iconographic treasury reflecting the culture of the medieval Hungarian Kingdom. Its obscured origins and diverse geographical dispersion across continents and countries add to its mystique, making it a significant artifact worthy of royal patronage.
