The Bodleian and ARTstor offer manuscript browsing

Oxford University’s Bodleian Library and ARTstor have collaborated on the digitization of more than 24,000 high-quality images of manuscript paintings and drawings from the library’s outstanding collection of Medieval and Renaissance illuminated manuscripts. ARTstor has digitized virtually all of the illuminated manuscript leaves from Bodleian manuscripts through the 16th century, as well as selected 19th- and 20th-century manuscripts in the Medieval tradition. ARTstor subscribers can browse the pages in the image gallery....ARTstor, June 5
