The Lindisfarne Gospels are one of Britain's greatest artistic treasures. Written and illuminated in honor of God and Saint Cuthbert circa AD 715-20, its superb quality and intricate design is painted in a large and subtle array of pigments made from a handful of local plants and minerals.

A note about the Latin Text...Pope Damasus recognized the need for an accurately-translated Latin text of the Gospels to be used during services. In 382, he appointed a young, scholarly priest, Jerome, later St Jerome, to revise all Latin translations of the Gospels. In due course, St Jerome's translation was adopted by the Church as the official Latin text. Over 300 years later, it was used for the Lindisfarne Gospels. St Jerome's Letter to Pope Damasus introduces the manuscript.

Each of the four gospels features an elaborate, decorative "carpet" page based on the form of a cross. 100 % silk twill. 12" X 66", hand-rolled hem.
