Reconstruction Summary

Four bifolia from an illuminated manuscript produced in France containing the De civitate Dei of Augustine. As can be seen from the fold marks and partially present book titles, the bifolia were later used as book covers. In 1632, the fragment came to Bern as part of the property of Jacques Bongars.
