The so-called Hitda #Codex is considered to be one of the gems of medieval #Ottonian #illumination. Probably originating from Cologne ca. 1000, the #manuscript is directly tied to the nunnery of St. Walburga in Meschede. The splendid codex was commissioned by Abbess Hitda, who was immortalized in the dedication picture. Additionally, the name of Archbishop Gero of Cologne has also been found in research as an additional possible patron of the manuscript. The manuscript’s 58 #miniatures of biblical scenes with their exceptional style make the codex something special!
