The Getty is art, architecture, and gardens at two locations: the Getty Center in Los Angeles and the Getty Villa in Malibu.
Giving thanks on Florence Friday. Big exhibitions like Florence at the Dawn of the Renaissance are only possible because museums are willing to lend their treasures. The British Library has generously shared their Carmina regia manuscript, illuminated by Pacino di Bonaguida.
This particular page is unusual both for the grand scale of Christ, and for the creative weaving of text throughout the image.
