Latin Bible, designed as a pandect (i.e. in one volume), following
the recension of Alcuin of York. Several copies of these Alcuin
Bibles, manufactured in the scriptorium of St. Martin of Tours,
have survived; with their finely graded hierarchy of scripts and
harmonious proportions, they are considered monuments of
Carolingian book production.
