Salvete Omnes,
Ukraine must become peaceful again - war of aggression must stop.
...
Today a bit of a late Antiquity and early Christian art from.. well, could have been Italy, North Africa or Western Asia, then still under the Eastern Roman empire - late VI or perhaps early VII century treasure of beauty and spirituality.
Because what a treasure this manuscript - Ashburnham Pentateuch (the first five books of the Old Testament) - French national Library Gallica page - still is, and it has some turbulent story to it too.
Nota bene fre/libre/gratis book from the Metropolitan Museum of Arts - Age of Spirituality: Late Antique and Early Christian Art, Third to Seventh Century.
some details
Valete!
