Summary
A leaf of the Gottschalk Antiphonal, written and illustrated by Gottschalk of Lambach at and for the use of the Stiftsbibliothek Lambach (Upper Austria) in the late twelfth century. On the recto of this leaf, the first antiphon of Matins begins with a two-line initial [C] in red and purple penwork, historiated with a man blowing a trumpet. On the verso, the first responsory of Matins begins with a two-line initial [C] in the same style historiated with the prophet Isaiah holding a scroll on which the first word of the responsory continues. This leaf was purchased from Hans P. Kraus in 1965.
