A German Psalter, written in 1485 by Johannes Waltpurger, perhaps
in Augsburg. The ornamental page decorated with vine scroll with
the beginning of the first prologue is almost identical to one in a
Cambridge manuscript by the same scribe. The back pastedown, glued
to the cover, depicts a landscape showered in blood. It is not
clear how this manuscript came to Basel.
