Decorated Text Page; Prayer Book of Cardinal Albrecht of Brandenburg, about 1525-1530. Additional Info:Departing from the artistic convention of showing a scene from the Old Testament typologically related to the facing miniature, this border contains illusionistic architecture and figures unrelated to any narrative. The text describes the abandonment of Christ and the flight of the apostles.
