12th-Century Latin Psalter Leaf Italy, c. 1150 Early Gothic Script
This rare and beautiful manuscript leaf is an authentic mid-12th-century psalter fragment, written in Latin on vellum in a transitional hand between Caroline minuscule and early Gothic textualis. Likely produced in Italy, the leaf features three red rubricated initials and clean, well-formed script, originally intended for use in monastic liturgy or private devotion. Recovered from a later book binding, the fragment bears evidence of age and reuse, including toning and wormholes, yet the text remains impressively legible. The leaf includes a portion of Psalm 122, used in processional liturgy: “Laetatus sum in his quae dicta sunt mihi. ” A rare survivor from the Romanesque era of manuscript production, with prestigious provenance from the Marvin L. Colker Collection via Maggs Brothers. Key Features. Date: c. 1150 AD. Origin: Italy. Text: Latin Psalter (Book of Psalms), incl. Psalm 122. Script: Transitional Caroline minuscule / Early Gothic.
