Manuscript document. Title devised by cataloger. Collation: Parchment. Origin: Italy? Lettering: Italian Gothic Rotunda Binding: Disbound. Leaf MS 111a: Gold leaf with repousse halos; Jesus robed in pink and blue. Peter robed in green, holding a net and Anthony robed in blue. Outer legs of M are in vermillion with blue and green foliate on the edges. The center leg of M is green and column-like. Leaf MS 111b: S is in blue with white detailing and a green acanthus leaf on the end of each tail. Background appears to be brazilwood (wine colored). Gold leaf is used for the halos of the figures and for the halo surrounding the dove. Nine figures total, with the central figure appearing to be scratched off of primary surface. Figures are clothed in various colors. Background is decorated... Leaf MS 111c: Halos and background outside of initial are in gold leaf, very minor flaking in the gold leaf. Peter is robed in pink and gold (perhaps very finely ground gold leaf?) while Paul is robed in green and vermillion. Edge of D is green and pink. Background of apostles is blue (it is textured - highly likely that it is a lapis lazuli background). Leaf MS 111d: Gold leaf surrounding letter is damaged with heavy flaking. The color of the D is a washed blue. St. Anthony stands against a brazilwood and green background. His robes are in a washed lampblack.
