Description
Bible of Mercy
A Masterpiece of Spiritual Art – Inspired by the Holy Year 2016
The Bible of Mercy is a unique art book: a magnificent family Bible containing the complete Old and New Testament in German, enhanced with over 350 miniatures from around 40 of the world's most significant manuscript collections – including masterpieces from ten centuries of Christian book painting.
270 of the illustrations are adorned with real gold leaf. The genuine leather binding features a removable, ruby-studded cross and gilded clasps.
This extraordinary edition was created with the support of the Bibliotheca Apostolica Vaticana for the Jubilee Year of Mercy under Pope Francis. A portion of the proceeds was donated to a children's hospital in Africa.
A spiritual and art historical gem – crafted for collectors, believers, and lovers of bibliophilic treasures.
