Decorated Text Page; Prayer Book of Cardinal Albrecht of Brandenburg, about 1525-1530. Additional Info: A variety of lively birds, insects, and colorful flowers decorates this border, which surrounds a text devoted to the story of Joseph of Arimathea asking for the body of Christ. The objects seem to hover in front of the shimmering gold ground, casting shadows below.
