Illuminating the world of the Rothschild Prayer Book - until 25 February

Dear Members and Followers,

If you have a chance to visit the State Library of Western Australia, this is a must.

from Wednesday 24 January 2018 09:00AM to Sunday 25 February 2018 05:00PM
The Nook
Discover the secrets of the Rothschild Prayer Book, one of the world’s most important medieval illuminated manuscripts.  The illuminations are presented page by page using the most detailed digital reproduction techniques. Accompanying the interactive digital display will be a showcase of handmade books and printed publications, with several very early printed bibles from the State Library’s collection.
Proudly presented in partnership with the Kerry Stokes Collection.
