Script Commentary

Script is a careful, imitation uncial recalling the Ingolstadt Gospels (CLA 9.1325) and the Nuremberg-New York Gospel fragments (CLA 9.1347, XI, p. 24): the pointed shallow bow of A rests on the base-line; the tongue of E is central; the tail of G is a nearly vertical hairline; shafts begin and end with a tiny hairline at the left and right respectively. Some corrections and marginalia by medieval and later hands.
