Summary

Description

Britain Loves Wikipedia at the Victoria and Albert Museum
Front Cover of the Lorsch Gospels

English: Front Cover of the Lorsch Gospels (about 810)

Ivory
Aachen, Germany; from Lorsch Abbey

Ivory carving enjoyed a revival at the court of Emperor Charlemagne. Ruler of the western half of the former Roman Empire in the years 800-14, he encouraged an artistic style that harked back to Rome. The figures on this Gospel cover resemble the ivory carvings on a 6th-century Byzantine throne in Ravenna. They show the Virgin and Child enthroned, with St John the Baptist on the left and the prophet Zacharias on the right.

Collection ID: 138-1866
