Légende

St Mark writing his gospel, 1414-1423. The symbolic lion holds the saint's ink pot and pen-case in its teeth. Other vignettes show episodes from the life of the saint: his baptism by St Peter; his self-mutilation in order to avoid the episcopate; his enthronement as bishop; his healing of a demoniac; his martyrdom. From the Bedford Hours, produced in Paris. Illustration from Illuminated Manuscripts in the British Museum, Miniatures, Borders, and Initials by George F Warner, series I, (British Museum, London, 1899).
