@medieval_illuminations Insect wings as well.

@medieval_illuminations Amazing how just a pen and a LOT of unstructured time freed the medieval imagination. Thanks for freeing these from undeserved obscurity !

@medieval_illuminations beautiful rich colours and a very interesting picture.I wonder if the Crescent below her feet represents the moon. The building in the background is lovely as are the colours of the dragon and the gold relief.

@medieval_illuminations I checked. All the way back to Hesiod.And the film's authors (screenwriters?) Beverley Cross & Jan Read did do their Classics homework. Probably wouldn't be allowed these days - can't get a copyright agreement with the dead.

@medieval_illuminations I really love this one

@medieval_illuminations Three little boars in school?They are sitting so well-behaved and listening

@amenonsen @medieval_illuminations I agree. The distinctiveness of vultures is their bald heads.Unless this is one of those bestiaries where the artists had never seen the animal.

@medieval_illuminations 🤣🤣🤣 Haha! So funny! That might be my favorite medieval image so far! Again I wonder where the artist's head was at.

@medieval_illuminations Is it biting the S like it's a snake?
